[Northkeep] replica of the "Nina" in Muskogee

[Miriam Cook]

Do you know if this is the replica that is normally
docked down in Corpus Christi?  I ask because I was
just down there and saw it.  It was increadibly well
done.  And frankly when I heard they were going to be
using it to teach a 15th century sailing class, I
almost didn't come home!!
