The Henry M. Plummer Award
This award was established on February 11, 2002. The Henry M. Plummer Award will be bestowed to the skipper and the crew who complete a voyage of note such as, but not limited to, that taken by Plummer so long ago, or to commemorate a significant act of seamanship. This award will be presented on occasion as it is deemed appropriate by the awards committee.
While this award encourages catboat skippers to venture far and wide, it is understood that the recipients of this award are expected to show good judgment by recognizing that a catboat, by its general design, is primarily a coastal craft and not suited for crossing open ocean. The award is a half model diorama constructed by Henry Plummer himself; it's a gift to the Catboat Association from the Plummer family. For more information and a photograph of this award, see Spring 2002, bulletin 128, pg. 6.
