DESCRIPTION:Explore a little known chapter in American Maritime History. 
 Lightships\, or floating lighthouses\, are vessels that were used to mar
 k shoals\, harbor entrances and ship channels where physical or financia
 l considerations would not allow the use of a lighthouse. Few of these s
 hips still exist.\nJoin Wayne Kirklin\, Associate Historian with the Ove
 rfalls Maritime Museum Foundation in Lewes\, Delaware\, for an illustrat
 ed talk on the life and use of these vessels. Mr. Kirklin\, a retired ba
 nker and college professor\, has been a boater for many years and serves
  as a guide on the lightship Overfalls in Lewes\, Delaware. He is the au
 thor of Lightships: Floating Lighthouses of the Mid-Atlantic.\nThis prog
 ram is sponsored by the Carlisle Historical Society and the Gleason Publ
 ic Library. Space is limited and registration is recommended\; please ca
