| Die Gesellschaft wurde am 01.06.1742 als The Fellowship Club gegründet. Nur Schiffskapitäne oder solche, die es mal waren, durften Mitglieder werden. Zwölf Jahre später bekam die Vereinigung ihre königliche Charter. Zweck war es nun, die Schifffahrt sicherer zu gestalten und die Familien der Mitglieder zu unterstützten. 1809 wurde der Name in Boston Marine Society geändert. Der Verein besteht heute noch. | ||||
| The "loving and friendly Society called The Fellowship Club" was founded on the 1st day of June 1742. Membership was limited to those who then or in the past had commanded vessels. Twelve years later the Fellowship Club received a charter from the Royal Governor and according to the charter the purposes of the Society were to make navigation more safe and to relieve members and their families in poverty or other adverse accidents in life. For its seal the Society selected a Ship arriving at the Light House from a storm, and the Sun breaking out of the clouds with the inscription "Marine Society at Boston in New England AD 1754." In 1809 the Society changed its name officially to the Boston Marine Society. It still exists today. | ||||
