The Search for a Revolutionary-Era War Ship

Mystic Seaport will host Melissa Ryan at its next Adventure Series program. Ryan will speak about leading an operation to find the war ship.

Post from Mystic Seaport:

What do the vessels of the U.S. Navy and the French Navy, underwater robots, teams of divers, a submarine, and the latest ocean technologies have in common? They are all being used in the search for the flagship of John Paul Jones, the BONHOMME RICHARD.

Join us for our next Adventure Series program Thursday, November 20 and listen as Melissa Ryan discusses her personal experiences leading this international operation to find the remains of the historic Revolutionary War ship. Presentations are at 1:30 and 7:30 p.m.: http://bit.ly/1vkMiK2.
