STATE OF MAINE arrived in Charleston, South Carolina, this morning after a scenic transit into Charleston Harbor.

As the ship passed Fort Sumter, STATE OF MAINE rendered a salute while cadets stood watch on the bridge and took their turns at the helm. Guiding the ship into port was ...Charleston Harbor Pilot and Maine Maritime Academy alumnus Jay Stewart, bringing a special MMA connection to the arrival.

Summer Sea Term allows cadets to put their classroom knowledge into practice through hands-on training at sea. From bridge watchstanding and ship handling to daily vessel operations, the experience helps prepare them for careers across the maritime industry.
