Privateer Lynx Visit
On April 7th, 2011, amid
cannon salutes from
shore and an escort from
the Wilmington Fireboat,
"Lynx" docked between
Market Street and
Princess Street. This
beautiful replica of an
1812 vintage Privateer
was in Wilmington for
almost three weeks and
was open to the public
for tours.
Thank you to these hotels for providing
complimentary rooms for the crew:
Homewood Suites, Stemmerman's Inn,
Hotel Tarrymore, Hilton Wilmington
Riverside and Best Western Coastline
Inn.
When Lynx's stay was extended, these
organizations & residents invited the
crew to use their shower facilities:

Tours, Patricia Wilson, Greg Thomas &
Tom Faust and Camellia Cottage.
