Lannon sails past on the first day of the 23rd annual Gloucester Schooner Festival. Gloucester was one of the earliest fishing ports in the country after a group of Englishmen, attracted by the deep waters and abundance of codfish, landed there in 1623 to fish and to establish a settlement. The city remained a fishing center but the industry declined there through most of the 20th century. (AP Photo/Lisa Poole, File)
