Article Abstract:
Joshua Slocum's solo circumnavigation aboard the reconditioned vessel 'Spray' is remembered. Slocum started his trip in Apr. 1895 from Boston, MA, and returned to Newport, RI, after three years. Slocum's feat was amazing because the 'Spray' did not have any modern navigational and sailing tools.
