Dan Denov was one of the lucky ones who got to sail- and row- the Draken Harald Harfagre last summer. He sent us this photo of the forwa rd lookout on watch, while the Viking ship was en route to Chicago from South Haven, Michigan . mile at the request of the local organizers of the Tall Ships Challenge festival there. The whole trip was an amazing experience. DAN DE N OV
