Guess who's 40 years old? This year is the 40th birthday of the F/V Erica Lee! In her honor, we're calling all hands on deck and rallying support for Merrohawke, where the boat spends her summer taking kids out on the water. Check out the alumni crew team page here... and a photo gallery of her many years at sea. And if you made memories aboard her, and would like to show her some love so more kids can grow upon onboard, please make a donation today. Thank you!
