Extended Camp Season, More Local Customers, For Portsmouth Sailing Season

Last spring, Andy Goodell, operations managed at the Gundalow Company, was excited for the upcoming season. He and his staff had been working to get more students out on the river on field trips, and the 2020 season was nearly completely booked, with students coming to sail starting in March.

“Kids are a hearty bunch, so we get them sailing on the river before the public,” Goodell said.

Unfortunately, as the pandemic worsened, it became clear that most spring field trips would be cancelled. Goodell didn’t have time to dwell on that loss, because he had to figure out how to handle the Gundalow Company’s popular summer camp program and public sailing.
