Sea Scout Ship Columbia RangerColumbia MarylandLong Cruise in the Florida Keys |
Here are scenes from the 1998 Long Cruise to the Florida Keys. The cruise was organized into two crews of six each, with a week on the SSTV Seawolf of Miami, and a few days of touring in Key West and the Keys.
Most of these photos are of the Yankee (first week) Crew. We had a great time. Look through the thumbnails below. To enlarge any photo, simply click on it. Enjoy!
