| Description | Join us for day sail trips on Belfast, maine's historic Friendship Sloop "Amity."
For more than a century, the Friendship Sloop "Amity" has been sailing the waters of Maine and New England.
"Amity" is one of the oldest surviving Friendship Sloops. Built in 1901 at the boat shop of Wilbur A. Morse in Friendship, ME, "Amity," like her sisterships, was originally used for lobstering. Morse is credited with developing the Friendship Sloop and the design quickly gained renown for its ease of handling and exceptional seaworthiness.
“The Friendship Sloops have become a symbol of more than just an age. They stand for good fellowship in the rounded cockpit, amidst clean air and good water. They stand for a job well done, a day well lived, and Maine.”
James S. Rockefeller, Jr., Enduring Friendships
