Where We Sail
Join us for a relaxing sail where you’ll see seals, working lobster boats and Maine’s beautiful craggy coast.
We depart out of Great Island Boatyard in Harpswell, Maine. Most trips begin in Quahog Bay and head south, sailing through the working harbor of Card Cove and then out into Casco Bay. Depending on weather and the length of your trip we can sail past lighthouses, explore uninhabited islands, visit a lobster pound or just sail to “nowhere”.
