Captain Emma Hathaway to Take Schooner BOWDOIN Helm CASTINE—Master and educator, Emma Hathaway, has accepted the position of BOWDOIN Captain at Maine Maritime Academy. Hathaway has had ties to mid- coast Maine since she was a teen. She fell in love with sailing at the age of14 while on a three-day sail out of Rockport on the schooner TIMBERWIND. For the next two summers, she worked on the vessel as an assistant cook, and over the following 15 years, she would serve as a crew member on the PRIDE OF BALTIMORE II, SPIRIT OF MASSACHUSETTS and NIAGARA. More recently, Hathaway captained the
SEAWARD out of San Francisco Bay and the UNICORN, sailing from Connecticut through the Saint Lawrence Seaway to the Great Lakes; she has worked as a trainer, mentor and teacher on ocean classroom vessels (SEAWARD, HARVEY GAMAGE, and LYNX); and has taught US Sailing cur- riculum at the Olympic Circle Sailing Club in San Francisco Bay. Between 2013 and 2015, she was captain of MAKANI OLU, a 96-foot, three-masted staysail schooner, the centerpiece of the Kailana Program, an ocean-oriented experiential treatment and education program based in the Hawaiian Islands.
“I am very excited to be part of the next phase of BOWDOIN’s sail training history,” said Hathaway. “This is the perfect job for me, combining education with sailing.” The schooner BOWDOIN enjoys a long history of seafaring education and Arctic exploration. Commissioned by explorer Donald B. MacMillan to facilitate his work in the high northern latitudes, BOWDOIN has made 28 trips to the Arctic, 25 of them before 1954 under the command of Mac- Millan. After MacMillan’s retirement the boat belonged to the Schooner Bowdoin Association until 1988 when Maine Mari- time Academy purchased the vessel for the purpose of training students. It was at this time that BOWDOIN became the Offi cial Vessel of the State of Maine and was desig- nated a National Historic Landmark. The Bowdoin Centennial Campaign—a
fundraising effort to keep the vessel explor- ing, sailing and training for another 100 years—will fund a renovation underway at Lyman-Morse at Wayfarer Marine in Cam- den. The project includes the replacement of her 30-year-old deck, stanchions and ceiling timbers, along with several systems upgrades: an engine rebuild, increasing the tank capacities for fuel, fresh water and wastewater, a new refrigeration system, electrical system and generator.
The campaign recently surpassed $1,000,000 in receipts and pledges, includ- ing these substantial gifts: a $20,000 grant from the Morton-Kelly Charitable Trust; a
$10,000 grant from the Fisher Charitable Foundation; $100,000 from the boat SI- LENT MAID; and a $25,000 1:1 matching gift for the endowment from a 1993 MMA Graduate. The campaign’s aim is to both fund the deck restoration and systems up- grades, and to strengthen the ship’s endow- ment in order to protect and preserve her in perpetuity.
“BOWDOIN is the fl agship of our sail training program, so we are pleased to be making excellent progress with the reno- vation project,” said Dana Willis, Marine Operations Manager. “Welcoming Emma as captain is another step toward BOWDOIN’s very bright future.”

WASHINGTON – The U.S. Coast Guard has published guidance that allows mariners to use electronic charts and publications in- stead of paper charts, maps and publications. The Navigation and Vessel Inspection
Circular, NVIC 01-16 establishes uni- form guidance on what is now considered equivalent to chart and publication carriage requirements.

Combining the suite of electronic charts from the U.S. hydrographic authorities and the Electronic Charting System (ECS) standards published this past summer by the Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services, the Coast Guard believes offi cial electronic charts provide mariners with a substitute for the traditional offi cial paper charts.

USCG Approves Electronic Charts
The new guidance applies to vessels subject to U.S. chart, or map, and publica- tion carriage requirements codifi ed in Titles 33 and 46 CFR and provides a voluntary alternative means to comply with those requirements.
This technology will also allow mari- ners to take advantage of information and data to enhance situational awareness during voyage planning and while underway. “Together, with our industry and inter- national partners, we are leveraging mod- ern technology to contribute to the safety, security and prosperity of our nation,” said Smith.
