The United States Lightship Nantucket is a historic landmark, having served as one of the last of its kind. It was of great historic significance to eminent vessels such as SS United States, RMS Queen Mary and SS Normandie. It has guided transoceanic shipping from the U.S. east coast ports for as many as 39 years. Decades later, the need to preserve and save this unique historic and venerable vessel was undertaken.

What an awesome experience to tour this important historic vessel. We learned about the ship, her history, maritime navigation, and the on going restoration process. Our guide, Bob, was very knowledgeable, fun, and well prepared with historic photos and other archives. If you are in this historic town, this is a must see historic stop!
