There’s something about a good story at sea.
It’s never rushed. Never forced. It’s told when the time’s right—usually with salt still in the air and a bit of history behind it.
That’s exactly what Stories from the Deck is meant to be.
Old Saltys is setting sail with purpose—honouring the legacy of the Mark Twain yacht while bringing together a community inspired by the wisdom of those who’ve come before us. This monthly newsletter exists to build that community, share stories, and track the progress and funds raised for the Mark Twain restoration. We celebrate people in our communities, the “old salts”, imparting their knowledge and wisdom to the next generation —while inviting new voices to join the journey. If this mission resonates, we welcome your contributions and encourage you to share this with your network—because a strong community, like a great voyage, is built together.
