Got A Lightship?

After visiting Martha's Vineyard for the July 4 holiday, Nantucket Lightship WLV-612 returned to Vineyard Haven Harbor in mid-August 2013.

Nantucket Lightship WLV-612 is back in Vineyard Haven Harbor.

The former U.S. lightship that once guided mariners past treacherous Nantucket Shoals is now a luxury charter yacht.

You can see it from the shore, tied up at the private Tisbury Wharf West Dock on Beach Road.
