1962 Gamage Coastal Gaff Rigged Schooner | 125ft

A Maine sailing legend, the Schooner MARY DAY, a two-masted gaff topsail schooner, was built in 1962 by the famous Harvey Gamage Shipyard in South Bristol, Maine USA. She was designed by Havilah Hawkins specifically as a coastal schooner. The first schooner built for the windjammer passenger trade she has been operating on the coast of Maine annually under USCG Subchapter T regulations since her christening. Her current owners have fastidiously cared for every aspect of her maintenance with frequent upgrades and renewals to allow for modern conveniences that accentuate her traditional pedigree including an extensive rebuild in 2000. MARY DAY is highly regarded by marine professionals and sailors alike. A frequent top finisher during the annual Great Schooner Race, her swift hull form allows her to easily reach speeds over 10 knots. Boasting 9’ of headroom, windows, and skylights in her passenger accommodations, MARY DAY also features large, uncluttered spaces above decks. MARY DAY's distinguished presence along the Maine coast has been featured in movies, documentaries, television, books, and magazine articles. This is a rare opportunity to own an iconic piece of maritime history.
