✨ Behind the scenes at the boat shop! Our talented crew is hard at work making the J. & E. Riggin shine. 🌊✨

Every year, we sand and repaint our deck boxes, which serve as seating and storage for fresh water and life jackets. Here’s Erik getting those lids ready for a fresh coat! 🎨💪

Meanwhile, Sam is meticulously sanding and varnishing our galley egress ladder, a new feature from last season. 🪜🔧

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀✨ We’re soaking up the beauty of Ireland today! 🇮🇪

While exploring Doolin, we came across a 44 North sticker and couldn’t believe how far it traveled! 🌟 44 North is a favorite coffee shop of ours in Stonington, a charming coastal town on Deer Isle in Maine. We love stopping there to explore the local shops and, of course, grab a coffee!

PS - Jocelyn is wearing a cozy Aran wool sweater hand-knit by someone’s gran 😆🧶❤️

It’s International Women’s Day! ✨👊 Today, we want to celebrate the incredible women who have been a vital part of our journey at Schooner Riggin.

As a small family-owned business, we truly couldn’t do what we do without our amazing female team members, from the office to the crew. We’re proud to have worked with such amazing women each season and are committed to empowering women in male-dominated fields.

Here’s to the strength, resilience, and talent of women everywhere! 💪🛠️

- Captains Jocelyn Schmidt & Justin Schaefer

🔧⚓ Behind-the-scenes of our yawl boat maintenance!

When it comes to small boats, every removable piece comes off for some much-needed TLC. We’re giving both the interior and exterior the care they deserve to be ready for summer sailing.

Wooden boats require extra attention to ensure they stay in top shape, especially after a busy season. We put these beauties to work, so they get lots of love over the winter! 🌊✨

Chef Jocelyn asked her family what they should bring to the holiday dinner, and guess what they requested? Lobster! 🦞 So, they brought a little taste of Maine with them to the Midwest and had their very own lobster bake! It was a delicious twist on tradition! What’s your favorite holiday meal? 🎄❤️

On special evenings, we’re lucky to have some musical talent join us aboard. Under the cozy awning, we can sip our tea or hot cocoa, letting the beautiful melodies wash over us as the water softly laps at the hull and the sun sets - sharing stories about life, sailing, and the magic of Maine.

Chef Jocelyn showed a friend’s son, Noah, 13 years old some pictures from our knitting cruise, of the Riggin, and of Swans Island lighthouse.

He combined them and drew this with the addition a few porpoises! We love see the Riggin through others eyes 🌊❤️
