January 9, 2020 @ 12:00 pm

WOODS HOLE HISTORICAL MUSEUM (WHHM): “Dan Clark: Marine Contractor and Woods Hole Legend” is the topic of WHHM’S Conversation on January 9 at 12:30 p.m., in the Woods Hole Library lower level meeting room. Memories will be shared by Peter Bumpus, Tom Renshaw, and Chip Shultz, who worked with Dan over the years. His major projects included building docks, repairing cables that supplied power to Martha’s Vineyard, dredging channels, and in 1965, constructing the WHOI’s R/V Lulu that served as the support vessel for the submersible Alvin.  Dan, who died in 1999 at the age of 80, also served as second mate on the WHOI research vessel Atlantis in the mid 1940s. At the Conversation, members of the audience are encouraged to share their stories and memories of Mr. Clark. The talk is free and open to the public.
