Maritime Day & Blessing of the Fleet

Maritime Day at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum celebrates the traditions kept alive in its working Shipyard. CBMM’s shipwrights and apprentices are a tangible connection to the Chesapeake’s rich story of boatbuilding, and this event invites the public to be a part of it. Shipwrights will give demonstrations of various maritime skills throughout the day, and CBMM’s annual Blessing of the Fleet will also be held.

Discounted boat rides, live music, and local food and drink will be available.
