Sabino
The National Historic Landmark vessel Sabino is the oldest continuously operating vessel in America. Built in 1908 in East Boothbay, Maine, by W. Irving Adams, she spent most of her career ferrying passengers and cargo between Maine’s mainland towns and its surrounding islands until being procured by Mystic Seaport Museum in 1974 to serve as a working exhibit. This beloved boat is available for 90 minute chartered cruises through the historic Mystic Bascule Bridge and down the scenic Mystic River. Consider making this unique piece of history an unforgettable part of your next special event during warm weather months.
