Aboard the The Sea Org Motor Vessel Freewinds

Each year, the Church of Scientology celebrates the anniversary of the Maiden Voyage of the Freewinds—Scientology's religious retreat. Mr. David Miscavige traditionally briefs the most senior Scientologists in a week-long convocation.

According to the Scientology website: "The Freewinds serves as the Church of Scientology's advanced religious retreat. The 440-foot motor vessel provides a distraction-free environment for parishioners to study and experience the highest level of spiritual counseling available in the Scientology religion.

"In 2008, to celebrate her 20th anniversary, the Freewinds underwent the largest refit in her history. Far more than a cosmetic upgrade, the ship was stripped from stem to stern, below the water line to the top of her stacks, covering all six decks. She is a brand-new, fully redesigned, technologically advanced, cutting-edge vessel serving as a religious retreat for ministering religious services at the highest levels of Scientology."
