Behind the Scenes Tour of the Schooner ERNESTINA-MORRISSEY

In the spring of 2015, the ERNESTINA-MORRISSEY was hauled at the Boothbay Harbor Shipyard to begin a multi-year refit overseen by master shipwright Harold Burnham. The ERNESTINA-MORRISSEY, ex-EFFIE M. MORRISSEY is a National Historic Landmark Vessel and the Official Vessel of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

The tour will include conversations with the shipwrights involved in her restoration as well as a first-hand look at the tools and materials being used to bring the ERNESTINA-MORRISSEY to her latest phase in a most extraordinary history.

Maine Maritime Museum members $20; nonmembers $25.
