On this episode of Big Blend Radio’s “Travel with Terri” Podcast, host/travel writer Terri Guthrie takes us aboard a genuine National Landmark: the historic schooner, the J & E Riggin, in Maine.
In this special conversation, Terri, along with her husband Ron and the schooner's owners, Captains Justin and Jocelyn, share their firsthand experience of sailing Maine's stunning Penobscot Bay. You'll hear how to "trade schedules for sea breezes, and screens for starlight" on this all-inclusive, 3- to 6-night adventure.
The episode delves into: - Life Aboard: The rhythm of the tides, the optional joy of helping hoist sails, and the camaraderie that develops among guests, affectionately called "Riggin Relics."
- Gourmet Coastal Cuisine: The gourmet meals prepared by Chef Jocelyn and her crew, including the unforgettable, traditional Island Lobster Bake, where lobsters are boiled in seawater on an uninhabited island.
- Timeless Traditions: The schooner's rich history dating back to 1927 and the unique magic of the Wooden Boat Rendezvous, where a flotilla of classic windjammers rafts up for a night of sea shanties and shared stories.
Join us for this inspiring look at a unique vacation that blends adventure, history, culinary delights, and the simple joy of being fully present on the open sea.
