How to See the Schooners with Cape Ann Cruises

Join us aboard the legendary Gloucester Fishing Yacht, the Wejack to see all the visiting Schooners up close from the water. The Wejack has a full bar aboard. We have multiple trips offered daily during the Schooner festival that will be a boatload of fun! See the Calendar and schedule of events below to learn more about our trips offered for the Schooner Festival. The Wejack is a classic power/fishing vessel that you’ll fall in love with, and is not a schooner., but is the perfect spectator boat to get the best views.
