The world famous 12 meter classic, Gleam, built by Clinton Crane in 1937 will also be available for deck tours. Cocktails and food will be provided by Mine Oyster of Boothbay Harbor and we'll have live music throughout the evening. Find yourself in the best seat in the house for firework viewing at 9PM over the harbor from the pier. An event you surely won't want to miss!
