Scroll over the diagram for specific cabin information.
There are three heads conveniently located topside in the forward cabin house.
The Heritage also has a shower onboard with plenty of hot, fresh water for daily use.

A Passage in Time
Enjoy a simpler age, where time slows down, and we sail away from the hardships of the world.
​
Take a breath and unwind with wind in the sails, delicious meals, a friendly crew, and the breathtaking scenery of the Maine coastline nearly unchanged since the age of sail.

The Maine coast is calling...

Heritage offers a grand galley/lounge area with massive skylights that open to allow lots of fresh air and natural light. There is nothing quite as lovely as feeling the cool ocean breeze on a warm summer day while relaxing down below. The spacious galley has cushioned seating around the entire space and the three large tables.
This public lounge is the perfect place to escape the elements, read a book from the ship’s library, play a game from the game locker, and of course enjoy the many delicious meals served aboard. Learn the chef’s recipes with a free cooking show while meals are prepared, or jump right in and help with prep. The aroma of goodies baking in the wood burning stove is always in the air and the galley crew is always welcoming.
Enjoy cozy cabins with traditional charm and modern amenities for your comfort and convenience.
All cabins have reading lights over the beds, and power outlets are conveniently located for charging your devices. There are sinks with hot and cold running fresh water, and cabinets and shelves to store your personal items.
Large skylights in the general compartments provide ventilation and deck lights in individual cabins provide natural light during the day.
Your bed is all made up with fresh linens, and fresh towels and face cloths are provided. All you’ll have to do is unpack and relax.

New Meadows
Enjoy an evening or early morning row in one of our row boats we take along with us. New Meadows is a one person row boat. Perfect to get away and be alone with your thoughts.
Lois Lane
Lois Lane has a sail rig. Sail or row around exploring the many secluded anchorages we end our days in. Great for group rows and to photograph the schooner.
Archie
Hop aboard Archie for shore excursions. A large, stable row boat. You will have fun as we all try to row together.
Clark Kent
The yawlboat provides power for the schooner when needed. Guests aren't disturbed by the sound or fumes of a diesel engine and unless they're watching don't even realize that the yawlboat is at work.
When not needed the yawlboat is hoisted out of the water on the stern davits and the Heritage is purely a sailing vessel.
Joe
When it's time to hoist the anchor and raise the sails, the authentic 1921 deck engine can be called into service. The distinctive sound sings out as the gaff inches its way up the mast, sails unfurling ready to catch the wind again.
