Towering masts support massive white sails billowing in the wind. Balmy ocean breezes lift the aroma of fresh sea air across the wooden deck as soul-warming sunshine reflects off the crystal aqua water. Captain and crew engage you in tales of the last sailing cable tending schooner on earth. She’s one of the oldest working wooden schooner in the United States, the official flagship of Key West and on the National Register of Historic Places. Aboard the Schooner Western Union Maritime Museum, you’ll be transported to another era as you experience a one-of-a-kind journey through the glory days of this magnificent ship.
