Schooner Adventure is the Flagship of Gloucester and a National Historic Landmark.
Gloucester Adventure, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit maritime historic preservation and educational organization. We are the stewards of the 1926 dory-fishing Schooner Adventure. Our mission began with the restoration and preservation in perpetuity of the National Historic Landmark Schooner Adventure, one of the last surviving Grand Banks dory-fishing schooners. Schooner Adventure is a national treasure that sails as an icon of the American fisheries and as a floating classroom for maritime history and environmental education programs. The Schooner is operated at sea along the New England coast, as a living monument to Massachusetts’ fishing heritage. As such, Schooner Adventure is important not only to Gloucester, but also to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and all America.
The mission of The Gloucester Adventure, Inc. is to:
Restore and preserve the Schooner Adventure for the enrichment of future generations and their love of the sea
Enable the Schooner Adventure to serve as a community resource for educational programming focusing on maritime, cultural, and environmental issues
Operate the Schooner Adventure at sea as a living symbol of America’s maritime heritage
Made possible in part by our sponsors and partners. Thank you!
