In 2010 our Flagship "Rekord" had been doing harbor
tours and we hope for more this next season. They are
free to everyone! Join us and see Rockland Harbor, its seals,
porpoises, birds and lighthouses.
The conference room can accommodate a hundred people for lectures

The rooms have many displays of the
old ship building and fishing industry and
beautiful and
intricate models of the great sailing vessels.

SPS Museum Hosts Schooner-Style Lobster
Cook-Outs on the Beach!
SPS Museum has hosted several
lively and exciting Fundraising Schooner-style Lobster Bakes
in the 2011 season that benefited the Sail, Power and Steam Museum.
The critters, near a hundred of them, were
cooked over a huge bonfire, in an enormous pot,
with a grand parcel of clams and corn on the cob, and
we sat around with a little wine, toasting marshmallows and
listening to bluegrass foot-tapping music. . The shores of the harbor at Sharp's Point South haven't seen such
revelry since the good ol' days! Call us
for your next party, anniversary or reunion.
(minimum 30 guests)
Make sure to look here for updates on next season's first Schooner-style Lobster Bake Fundraiser, or
