Sailing the Olad

Schooner Olad offers sailing tours and charters departing from Camden, Maine, to see windjammers, wildlife, lighthouses, and islands.



I'm thrilled to be aboard this sunny day on this fine sailing ship.



We get to hoist the sails.



The deckhand, Cole, takes our photo.



I took this photo of a sailing ship that accompanied us along the way.





We did see this lighthouse on beautiful Camden Bay.





There is Cole taking down the sails. We had a two-hour ride on the Olad, during which we looked up at Mt. Battie which we had climbed (in the car) earlier that day for spectacular views.

  1. You're a real sea(wo)man now! I love you hamming it up in photo #4! Looks like you had such a blast, and perfect weather, too. I like the photo of you with your friends. And all those ropes make for such strong (and inspiring) lines. Makes me want to paint!

  2. Are you going to paint that lighthouse when you get home?
