She’s back…

Coming to a harbor near you....

If you haven’t been out on the Adventuress, you’ve been missing out…and she’s here for much of August. Here’s the rest of the story:

Schooner Adventuress spends August in the San Juan Islands

There’s still one month of summer left, and what better place to spend it than sailing through the San Juan Islands? Sound Experience operates the schooner Adventuress and is offering day and overnight sailing trips out of San Juan Island’s Friday Harbor until the end of August.

The 133’ historic schooner Adventuress was built in 1913 in East Boothbay, Maine. The ship is a National Historic Landmark and recently won the popular vote in the American Express/Puget Sound Partners in Preservation competition. Adventuress is owned by non-profit Sound Experience, an organization that strives to educate, inspire and empower all to care for Puget Sound.
