NMHF’s 65 foot schooner American Spirit
provides cruises, private charters and educational charters. Cruises
are offered every other Friday and as boating and baseball packages
when the Nationals are in town on Saturdays. Private charters are perfect
for corporate outings, birthday celebrations or any get together. They
are also available as a package deal with our Boating and Baseball
Charter. The American Spirit can also serve as a floating classroom for students through it's Maritime Education Program.
The
American Spirit is a gaff-rigged, sixty-five foot schooner that the National
Maritime Heritage Foundation restored as a community resource for the
DC area. This classic vessel sails the Washington DC waters of the
Potomac and Anacostia Rivers. It is certified by the US Coast Guard to
carry 35 passengers.
