History
Built-in 1925 in Essex, Massachusetts, the schooner Roseway is one of the nation's few authentic tall ships still working and one of only three Essex-built Grand Bank fishing schooners left in existence. This ship guided Allied vessels through Boston Harbor during World War II. Our non-profit work is inspired by the historic schooner on which our programs operate as well as our desire to help students to reach their full potential as responsible, engaged community members.
