Apollonia is getting ready for the 2026 season

what will you have aboard the june cargo run?

what summer river literacy programming will you join us on?

Since 2020, Schooner Apollonia has delivered over 250,000 pounds of goods, working out of 34 ports, partnering with more than 75 businesses, and training 26 sailors in traditional seamanship. Apollonia has not only demonstrated the viability of post-carbon trade, but the public appetite for experiential, purpose-driven maritime engagement. This season we will move cargo, train sailors and run river literacy programming from the Hudson City Docks in partnership with the Hudson Sloop Club.
