Snow Marine Shipyard (Part 1)- Ship Building in Rockland Maine

Join us online for an evening with museum co-founder, Captain Jim Sharp and Captain Doug Lee, as they tell the story of Rockland's Snow Marine Shipyard. The Sail, Power, and Steam Museum now sits on the site of the former shipyard.

In operation for 140 years and owned by generations of the Snow family, the yard was the hub of Rockland shipbuilding back in the 19th century, building more vessels than anywhere else in Rockland, Maine, and most of New England!  Rockland itself was the 4th largest seaport in the United States in the late 1800's (only Boston, New York, and Philadelphia were busier).

Attendance is free but registration is required to receive the log-in information.
