Proud to Sail into History.

Today, Maine Maritime Academy’s schooner Bowdoin joined a spectacular fleet of tall ships in Boston Harbor as part of the Sail250 celebration, honoring America’s rich maritime heritage.

Built in 1921 for Arctic exploration, Bowdoin has spent more ...than a century inspiring adventure, seamanship, and leadership. As America’s oldest purpose-built Arctic schooner, she continues to serve as a classroom under sail for Maine Maritime Academy students while representing the Academy at one of the nation’s premier maritime celebrations.

It was an honor to see Bowdoin sailing alongside historic vessels from around the world, sharing the traditions of Maine’s seafaring heritage with thousands of spectators gathered along Boston’s waterfront.

Fair winds, schooner Bowdoin, as you continue your voyage!
