Members and guests: Join us on our second two-hour cruise down the Piscataqua River to the mouth of the river! Along the way sights will be pointed out and, at one point, one of the crew members will provide an interesting historical talk about the role of gundalows in our region. We will be treated to some shanty singing as well! Going on the Gundalow PISCATAQUA provides a leisurely, comfortable way to sail. While on board you cannot help but imagine what times were like in the past – and that the PISCATAQUA is the only gundalow in the country. We will provide refreshments.
