\r\n

Yesterday marked a historic moment for Maine Maritime Academy\u2014as the arrival of the TS STATE OF MAINE in Portland, Maine coincided with Maine Maritime Academy Founder\u2019s Day and the 85th anniversary of the Academy\u2019s founding on March 21, 1941.
\n
\n After departing Philadelphia bound for ...<\/a>Portland, Capt. Mac and the crew spent the voyage getting to know the ship\u2019s advanced systems\u2014testing features like the drop-down thruster and load-dependent engine starts. As Capt. Mac explained,
\n
\n \u201cThe ship is extremely quiet at sea. Even at full speed of 18+ knots, you barely feel like you are moving. With all the complexity of systems and operations, reading the manuals and step-by-step instructions is the key to success.\u201d
\n
\n But the most meaningful moment came when the ship arrived in Portland.
\n
\n \u201cFor me, personally, pulling into Portland onboard this brand new ship was a full circle moment. My at-sea career began here 36 years ago when I was assigned to Coast Guard Cutter \u2018SPAR\u2019\u2026 Being the Master of this new ship and having Portland be our first port of call was very moving. If it couldn\u2019t be Castine, I\u2019m glad it\u2019s Portland.\u201d
\n
\n For the crew, and for the future of the TSS State of Maine, the significance is just as strong.
\n
\n \u201cWe\u2019re overjoyed to have the ship in Maine. Now the fun part starts\u2014getting the ship ready for the arrival of 250 students in a little over a month. We had a handful of student leaders aboard yesterday to see their new ship. It was amazing to see their reactions as they walked around.\u201d
\n
\n From its first arrival in Maine\u2026 to the next generation of Mariners preparing to step aboard\u2014this is a moment that honors the Academy\u2019s history while looking boldly to the future.
\n
\n While there are too many alumni involved in bringing the ship into Portland to mention them all, the pilot climbing the ladder in one of the photos is Calvin Klopp \u201912. It\u2019s always incredible to work alongside alumni all over the world and see their expertise in action!
