The Mary Day on her way down the railway and the J&E Riggin alongside the Eagle to haul on the same Tide!
Things have really picked up here at the Shipyard and aboard the schooner. The Railway has been busy with lots of the Windjammers hauling out for their annual painting and scrubbing for the coming summer of sailing. Crew members have arrived and are very busy working away painting, varnishing and getting everything rigged and operational. We are so excited for guests to return in just a few short weeks!

Als0, if you havent heard we have added online booking to our arsenal! Take a look at the Schedule page on our website, so you can make sure you have a spot on any one of our upcoming trips no matter the time or day!
Availability
We in fact have availability on all June trips, if you are looking for an early summer getaway we have just the adventure for you!
We hauled on early morning tide and spent 6 days sanding, puttying, and painting. Then it was back down the railway and back to our berth so the fun can continue!
We replaced 3 short planks on the Starboard side while we were hauled out. Mike Rodgers made short work of it and it came out beautifully.
Tyler all suited up to give the bottom a good coat of paint.
Looking better everyday, lots of steady hands with paint brushes and rollers add up to make quite the finished product!
Nate, Courtney, Asher, Tyler and John keeping us all smiling

Ahhhh thats better....Steaming off into a sunset to cap off just another day out on the bay. We will be back there so soon
An evening picnic on Hells half acre. A place that certainly (and thankfully) doesn't live up to its name and is just the right size to circumnavigate while the lobsters are steaming.
