You will never have another experience quite like the Stephen Taber. Captain and crew are fantastic, food is amazing and you will never be the same again after sailing on the Taber
Accommodations on the boat are simple (cabins are small) but comfortable and every one of us felt fond of our cozy berth by the end of the weeklong trip. One of the highlights was listening to Captain Barnes play his guitar or his mandolin at the end of the day or the ship’s boy, Oscar, play the ukulele. All in all, a very relaxing and a healthy time.
An amazing vacation! Sailing aboard the Stephen Taber strikes the perfect balance between adventure and luxury. The Captain is capable, caring and irreverent while his crew are devoted, polite and accommodating.

A true life experience
My Wife Ali and I took the Music Cruise and Gam. We were blessed with great weather and Sailing. It was My first Sailing experience and a first old ship sailing adventure for the both of us. What a great time. You will find the other passengers are like minded people that's is why you are there. The crew and Captain Noah are true professionals. The cabins are tight but you only go in there when you want to close your eyes anyway. Please go on a diet before your trip because there is no shortage of great food cooked on a old wooden stove. Its a roughing it type of adventure and worth its weight in gold.
Every day we explored the beautiful coastline of Maine, ate 4 nourishing, delicious meals (the fourth meal is the not-to-be-missed appetizer course of fine wines, exotic cheeses, nuts and delicious canapés), and got just enough exercise hauling sails, hoisting the anchor (optional responsibilities) and walking around stunning uninhabited islands and quaint little villages. Paddle boarding was a fun option for some time to oneself (most days) while the Taber was at anchor.
Wonderful sailing. This a special kind of adventure. Be prepared to rough it a bit when it comes to showering and small cabins. If you hate camping, for instance, this might not be your bag baby. If you like swimming off the stern, lobster bakes on pristine beaches, and lots of incredible hand picked wines and cheeses, this is the trip of a lifetime. The crew was attentive, thoughtful, and fun. The food was outstanding. We will definitely be back.
