Come
sail away on a 1929 Catboat, built here in Edgartown by Manual Swartz Roberts
in what is now the Old Sculpin Gallery on the waterfront. Gain a sense of what
life sounded and felt like 75 years ago as you coast silently up Edgartown Harbor
and Katama Bay on this beautifully restored 20' vessel. Once a work boat used
for fishing, scalloping, and summer charters, Vanity now does duty as the Museum's
living link to the Island's maritime past. After true Catboat design, she's half
as wide as she's long, providing a very stable working and sailing platform. Totally
restored in 2000, this chartered boat (with captain) offers guests a relaxing
sail.
Normal Cruises are 2 Hours in Length. Picnics are Encouraged
Cost is $20.00 per hour per person (two hour minimum). Room for Six or a Quiet
Trip for One
