Story
The Schooner Adirondack II was launched in August of 1999. The near sister ship of the Adirondack joins the fleet of schooners known for their performance-oriented design/construction combined with classic traditional aesthetics. With its wide-open cockpit, Adirondack II can comfortably accommodate groups up to 65 trainees/passengers. While dockside, spacious cockpit doghouses double as serving space for food and beverages or classroom navigation paperwork. Adirondack II affirms that modern wood composite construction and 19th century elegance blend seamlessly to the benefit of all.
