Maine's First Ship

A treat from one of our steadfast volunteers who usually works on the large model of Virginia in the visitor center. Here Ken shares a more fanciful, seasonally- inspired craft! Happy Halloween! 🎃

We don’t usually allow climbers in the rigging that aren’t crew, but I guess we’ll allow it for these little visitors. ... See MoreSee Less

Ted seems to be the only one wearing garters today!?!
Before boarding Virginia visiting 5th grade students from Phippsburg Elementary were eased into the 17th century with a look at how clothing differed from now: no elastic for socks; no zippers for pants; no pockets were sewn into your clothes, instead you attached your pocket to a belt or sash. (Oh, and no recycled water bottles were used in the making of the linen shirt!)

Pants without pockets? That would be tough, though women’s pants often lack pockets

Virginia had an impromptu visit from the Fisher Mitchell 3rd graders today! We always love getting young hearts and minds aboard! ... See MoreSee Less

You’ll see Virginia out on the river today as we do a series of sails to say THANK YOU to our volunteers!
Our volunteers donate thousands of hours of their time every season to make sure every part of Maine’s First Ship happens!

You could be on one of these sails too!
Come down to the Jane Steven’s Visitor & Education Center at the Bath Freight Shed and volunteer today!

Julia sailed with us in the morning and took this great shot of Rowan

I loved visiting you from Northumberland UK in July. Safe moorings over the winter… and all the best for your new and returning visitors in 2025.

She looked majestic out on the river as we crossed the bridge today!

Beautiful I will stop in next summer.

Three cheers🎉
