“Open the boat room doors!”

Return to the days of wrecks and rescues off the Graveyard of the Atlantic. Old Harbor Life-Saving Station at Race Point Beach in Provincetown is the setting for this reenactment of a 1902 rescue drill that includes firing a projectile out of a cannon-like gun and bringing a shipwreck “victim” to shore.
