Jose Hernandez: Rigging USS CONSTITUTION And More Part 2
Manage episode 358640101 series 3339032
Jose Hernandez was a biologist by trade, but his love of sailing changed his life.
When he left small sailboats behind in favor of square riggers, he had no idea he would one day be paid to rig one of the grandest remnants of the Age of Sail: USS CONSTITUTION, the oldest commissioned warship still afloat.
We sat down with Jose to talk about knots and rig work and how a Cuban from Southern California ended up working his dream job in freezing Boston.
Here's the second half of the conversation.
