Our new crew hauling up Apollonia’s mainsail
Apollonia crew make this look easy!
FIRST MILE LOGISTICS, APOLLONIA-STYLE
We’ve loaded 6,700 pounds of Hudson Valley Malt onto electric vehicles (and one very reliable vegetable-oil powered Ford) for the short journey from Germantown, NY to Hudson where Apollonia awaits with a freshening breeze.
Apollonia’s crew transfers the malt from truck to vessel using our electric cargo bike, which sails with us on each voyage and recharges with onboard solar panels.
Work Smarter! Apollonia’s crew uses the power of gravity (and muscle) to load the many bags of malt into our cargo hold. We’ll soon be sailing downriver, and powered by the wind. Huge thanks to Attentive Energy One for their sponsorship of this May 2023 voyage.
