Seller Description:
Curlew Charters Inc., a California corporation, was formed in June of 2002, preceding the July acquisition of the Schooner Curlew. Fulfilling a 10 year dream, Captain Bob Harrison set out to create a business that would not only allow him to share his love of sailing and the sea with others, but play a part in maintaining a historical vessel representative of the Classic days of Sailing.
Now entering its fifth season, Curlew Charters, operating as part of the Dana Wharf Sportfishing fleet, is offering for the second year, public sailing trips so individuals can experience the thrill of sailing on this historic 1926 Schooner.
Built in Wiscasset, Maine, the 82’ Schooner Curlew was built from the imagination of the legendary American boat designer John Alden. Built to race, she competed in the 1920s and 30s with other celebrated yachts, in the style of the rich and famous. A veteran of WW2, Curlew has since been totally refitted and restored to the highest standards of performance and luxury.
