Join us for an evening with museum co-founder, Captain Jim Sharp, for a free, online talk Tuesday, April 8th at 6:30pm as Captains’ Quarters continues.
Captain Sharp will explore Part Two of the fascinating history of the Snow Marine Shipyard. The Sail, Power, and Steam Museum now sits on the site of the former shipyard in Rockland's historic South End.
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).
