After the CB Antique & Classic Boat Festival , the 2009 Summer Season is in full swing

Windrush arrived home in Annapolis on Monday, June 22, after participating in the Chesapeake Bay Antique & Classic Boat Festival in St. Michaels, MD. The show was a great success, and over 100 people toured the boat, which was docked at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. On the trip home, "Windrush" ran with the Trumpy "Celebration" until turning toward the Severn River and her own dock. "Celebration", which is owned by Steve & Nancy Smith, continued north to her berth in Baltimore.

Windrush was launched in Annapolis in 1966, and she recently completed a 3-year restoration. She is a 55' "Flush Deck Cruiser", designed and built by John Trumpy and Sons. Trumpy yachts, built in America from 1910 to 1972, epitomize the golden era of yachting, and they hold a revered place in American maritime history.

American Classic Yachting makes it possible for a wide range of people to experience "Yachting" aboard the Trumpy Motor Yacht Windrush. A variety of cruises, from a 3-hour afternoon or sunset cruise to a week-long Vacation cruise, are offered for up to 6 guests on day cruises and 4 guests on overnight cruises.

Windrush operates out of Annapolis, MD, where she was built in 1965/66, and Islamorada in the Florida Keys. She cruises the Chesapeake Bay in late spring, summer & early fall (mid-May/mid-October). In the fall, she heads south on the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, and she cruises from December through March in South Florida.  In April, she heads north again for a springtime cruise on the ICW to Annapolis. Check the Cruise Schedule to see cruise venues and special events that fit your interests and schedule.

You can also stay aboard this elegant yacht at her docks in Annapolis or the Florida Keys at the World-famous Lorelei (MM 82) through our "Yacht & Breakfast" program. The Yacht has two elegant staterooms, each with a private head (nautical for bathroom) and tiled shower, a comfortable saloon with TV/DVD, and spacious aft and forward decks for serious relaxing, dining, sunning and sightseeing.

Windrush charters year round, but she also participates in a select number of antique & classic boat shows. This enables hundreds of classic yacht enthusiasts, including younger generations of Americans, to see first-hand the exquisite craftsmanship embodied in these beautiful 20th Century yachts.
