Argia




I see this ship often. The 81 foot (LOA) Argia makes her way down the Mystic River three times a day, offering two-and-a-half-hour cruises. She is one of the busier boats around. Much of the cruise is consumed by motoring the river, but south of Morgan Point the sails are hoisted. Built in Virginia in 1986, she is a two masted, gaff topsail schooner.
Recently, on an evening sail to West Harbor, I spotted her with a festive crowd enjoying the sunset.
