Captain Edward H. Adams

On a rainy day in June, 1982, the replica gundalow CAPTAIN EDWARD H. ADAMS was launched into the Piscataqua River while several hundred people lined the banks to watch this historic event. It took an impressive community effort to build the 70' replica on the grounds of Strawbery Banke Museum, with a group of dedicated shipwrights and volunteers led by local legendary boat builder Bud McIntosh. This event celebrated the hundreds of cargo-carrying gundalows built in the Piscataqua Region starting in 1650. At the same time, it celebrated the 20th-century creation of a unique teaching platform that travelled to Piscataqua region riverfront towns carrying a message that raised awareness of this region's maritime heritage and the environmental threats to our rivers.

We were saddened to learn of the passing last week of Dr. Geoffrey Clark, one of our most faithful supporters. Geoff along with his wife, Martha Fuller Clark, have been a part of the Gundalow family for over fifteen years and were instrumental in helping to raise the funds for the capital campaign to build our gundalow Piscataqua.
