Sailors practice furling and unfurling a sail aboard USS Constitution for the first time since the ship began a restoration period in 2007. Sailors assigned to Constitution routinely work to improve seamanship skills in preparation for possibly sailing the ship for the bicentennial of the War of 1812.
