Wind in the Rigging

The late Ben Tassinari was as first mate on the Tole Mour , a CIMI tri-masted topsail schooner. He touched the lives of many instructors, students and summer campers with his infectious laughter, chantey singing, juggling and enthusiasm. An avid free diver and spear fisherman, Ben spent much of his adult life in a wet suit.

Wind in the Rigging is a compliation of sea chanteys and "pirate" music. The vocals and banjo playing give it a very authemtic feel.

All proceeds from the sale of Ben's music go to a scholarship in his memory for Guided Discovery's Tall Ship Summer program.
