Schooner Liberty Clipper

The schooner Liberty Clipper was built in 1983 at the Blount Shipyard in Rhode Island.  With a steel hull, she is a modern replica of a Baltimore Clipper style schooner, which were widely used during the 18th and 19th centuries.  Known to be some of the fastest sailing vessels of their day, many Baltimore Clipper schooners were used as Privateers during the War for Independence and the War of 1812, and were also utilized in many large ports as pilot ships to guide visiting vessels into the harbor.  As part of the Liberty Fleet of Tall Ships, she has been providing guests the opportunity to experience a traditional sailing vessel in Boston Harbor for the past two decades.

Liberty Clipper was designed not only to help sustain the tradition of tall ship sailing, but also to accommodate guests on multi-day windjammer cruises.  She is outfitted with space for 24 overnight guests in 12 bunk-style cabins.  You can find her sailing the Bahamian Out Islands of Eleuthera and the Exumas during her winter sailing season.
