Yankee Ferry Foundation

This lovely Old Ferry Boat has stolen the hearts of many a man. She is a National Heritage Ship, docked in Staten Island, NY. And we, her loyal crew, are working joyfully, tirelessly . . . to give her the attention she deserves; “readying ship” to embrace the public aboard by creating a stunning educational "Avant Maritime Museum" and a thoughtful meeting space, "Mutiny Forum" for global thinkers to embark upon and realize a new world for the good of nature and every kind of man!

Being 110+ years young, life aboard this historic ship comes with antiquated water & electric. It can be a lesson in survival at times. Being in New York the winter gets very cold, and even though the cabins are heated, blankets and a sense of adventure is needed. By most people’s standards this is NOT a “comfy” experience in the cold season. A dose of good humor, forbearance, & fortitude is key to success.

There is 24-hour public transportation (bus), just a half-minute walk from the ship. There is also free parking for crew with cars. We also have a few bikes for crew to use.

Her Lady~ship, like the Statue of Liberty welcomes all creeds and cultures. There is a happy, wholesome atmosphere aboard, which makes for a rewarding living situation for all . . . no alcohol, smoking, nor profanity. This is where the American Dream awakens to a world reality, and where the open frontier of thought begins. No one leaves unchanged. Be ready for mental and physical liberation!

A bunk, stowage, all bedding, and towels are provided (cabins sometimes shared with another). There is a desk and seating in every quarter, as well as communal salons for relaxing, and open access to ships reading materials.

There are a few "Wee Galleys" to cook up simple meals.

It's all here to be discovered and claimed as . . . Home!
