Schooner Madeline Hosting Free Sails 

July 19, 2019

The public is invited to sign up for a complimentary sail on the schooner Madeline. Each year the Maritime Heritage Alliance's 56-foot schooner Madeline and her volunteer crew host free deck tours and sails for community members as a thank you for the community’s support. Individuals may attend one sail per season, and individuals may only make reservations for groups of up to four persons. The dates for 2019 sails are online. All reservation requests must be submitted via email to maritimeheritagealliance@gmail.com. Requests will be handled on a first-come, first served basis. 

Schooner Madeline is a replica of an 1845 schooner by the same name that once sailed the Great Lakes. She was constructed by the volunteers of the Maritime Heritage Alliance in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Madeline is an official ambassador of Traverse City, and each year she is sailed by volunteer crew to ports across the Great Lakes.
