Great day yesterday on the slopes of Black Mountain of Maine for the 15th Annual Maine Maritime Academy Alumni Ski Gathering! ⛷️☀️
It truly was a bluebird day, with nearly 50 alumni and friends turning out to hit the trails, reconnect, and share plenty of laughs. So fun — and ...definitely not to be missed next year!

Big progress to share as work continues on the new pier in preparation for the arrival of the STATE OF MAINE!
As of February 25, crews completed drilling for all 251 structural pilings, marking a major milestone for the project. Rock anchors for the East Mooring Dolphin have also been ...finished following successful testing.
The pier stem is now structurally complete, and work is advancing across the site. Today, crews completed the cast-in-place concrete beams on west pier bents 1 and 4 — progress you can see in this video. Precast beams at bents 2 and 3 are in place and will soon be grouted, with deck panel installation on the west end of the main pier set to begin in early March.
All three mooring dolphins have their pilings complete and are moving into the next construction phase.
With four crews and more than 30 workers on site, momentum is strong as we continue getting ready to welcome the new training vessel. Stay tuned for more updates! ⚓
