About this event
Experience the Chester River on a two-hour trip on the 1768 schooner SULTANA with the Sultana Education Foundation. Passengers are encouraged to help raise sail, steer using SULTANA’s seven-foot tiller, and explore the authentically reproduced crew’s quarters below-decks.
Chestertown was founded in 1704 as an official Crown Port of Entry, and as such, enjoyed a lucrative maritime trade that fueled the local economy and funded construction of the Georgian brick mansions that still line the streets of the town.
The Sultana schooner tour starts at 2pm. There will be time to explore Chestertown before and after lunch.
