Support the Museum by becoming a member of the
HERRESHOFF AFTERGUARD
According to Merriam-Webster the word Afterguard was first used in 1750, more than a century before HMCo. was founded along the shores of Narragansett Bay. It is defined as:
“The decision-making members of a sailboat racing team, usually including the helmsman, tactician and navigator”
Borrowing the etymology, we’ve decided it is a fitting term for those Herreshoff Marine Museum patrons who not only care deeply about the history and legacy of the organization but also about its future.
