The Mystic Seaport website explains about the 38th Voyagers and how this trip is culturally and historically significant: “In the summer of 2014, the 1841 whaleship
Charles W. Morgan will sail for the first time in more than 80 years. During this commemorative 38th Voyage, 79 adults from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds will sail aboard the ship and participate in an unprecedented public-history project. This select group includes artists, historians, scientists, journalists, teachers, musicians, scholars, and whaling descendants.
