A Two Hour Sail

Sit back and relax or help the crew raise the sails as we head out through Gloucester's working harbor and along her rocky coastline. See lighthouses, castles, scenic beaches, and magnificent waterfront homes. Breathe the clean salt air and feel the wind as it fills the schooner's sails.

Listen to stories of fishing schooners and shipbuilding as we sail through Gloucester harbor. Did you know that Gloucester is the oldest working seaport in America?

The Schooner Thomas E. Lannon offers daily two-hour sails from Seven Seas Wharf at the Gloucester House Restaurant, Rogers Street, Gloucester. Imagine what it was like to sail on a fishing schooner one hundred years ago. Call us to make your reservation.

We begin our sailing season in mid-May, offering public sails on weekends through mid-June. Starting in late June, we begin to offer daily public sails, sometimes as many as four trips a day. We sail through mid-October. Please note that we offer private charters seven days a week throughout our entire season. We hope you will join us for a sail in 2011.
