Schooner Timberwind Update
















Timberwind 's crew successfully hauled out for bottom painting at North End Shipyard and is back in Rockport completing preseason finish work.

Captain Tassi has a new crew this year and an all new suite of sails. Dawn Tassi has added a full time galley mate to assist with meal preparation

You can be one of the first to try out the new sails by joining the Timberwind Memorial Day Weekend Cruise. Or, join me when I sail on Timberwind for the Schooner Gam on the third week of June.

Windjammer Nathaniel Bowditch Under Way

Nathaniel Bowditch Update

















Racing schooner Nathaniel Bowditch is well into its spring fit out. Bowditch wintered on the Camden waterfront where it will reside until moving back to its Rockland slip.

Hard at work are Capt. Owen Dorr and brother Paul , along with their new crew of three. Cathie Dorr (the captain's wife,) is busy running the business side of the operation.

The Bowditch team is in the process of securing National Historic recognition for the 1922 racing yacht/windjammer.

Every cruise booked on this classic vessel helps the Dorr's move a step further in their dream of restoring this spectacular sailing Ferrari to her 1920's glory.
