If you work (or WANT to work!) in Boston's fast-growing clean energy industry, but have not yet seen Hull Wind 1, NOW’S YOUR CHANCE! This tour leaves from Quincy Terminal and features a catered lunch on the ‘Island Expedition’, a full-featured harbor cruising vessel that fits up to 200 people. Enjoy food and networking, PLUS a guided tour and in-depth seminar on the science of wind power, the history of launching Hull Wind 1, and the technology innovations that are on the horizon for the wind sector.
