Wooden Boat Rendezvous was a rousing success this year! We had nine boats rafted for the night with music, dancing, deserts and endless camaraderie. What a way to celebrate the winding down of our sailing season. Check out our beautiful main framing all the flags of the fleet! Photo credits: Ryan Reed Leagues Deep Diving

Have you been wondering what a Windjamming experience would be like? Is this the kind of trip for you? What can you expect from a sailing venture aboard the Heritage?
We had the pleasure of hosting worldwide traveler and award winning travel podcaster, Chris Christensen, this summer so that he could share his experience with the world!
Find his wonderful blog describing his week aboard the Heritage at:

We are excited for his podcast episode to come out and will be sharing it here as well!

Experience life aboard Maine’s Schooner Heritage, from compact cabins and hands-on sailing to wood-fired meals, island views, and quiet nights at anchor.

It won’t last long!

So lucky to catch Schooner Heritage as she rounded the famed Pemaquid Point Lighthouse. A sight to see for sure!

On her way down to Boothbay to make a grand appearance at the Windjammer Days festival.

Did you know that Pemaquid Point Lighthouse is one of the most famous and recognized lighthouses of Maine? It is featured on Maine’s state quarter and is quite a majestic sight perched on dramatic cliffs over Muscongus Bay. The tower dates to 1835 and on select days is open to climb up to the lantern room to catch the stunning view from high above the bay. Next time you sail with us, take some time on your way up the coast to stop and visit Maine’s most iconic lighthouse!
