Fast Start

We are amazed how quickly a snow-covered pile of steel is turning into the skeleton of our future home.

25 Years

In the second week of March in 1983, Maine Sailing Partners was born when we opened the doors of our first loft on Commercial Street in Portland (now a parking lot).    Today, we marked the 25th return of that occasion with a quiet celebration and a piece of carrot cake.

Still, we are proud to have made it through 25 long years.  We'll save the big celebration until we're in our new home.

Sprouting

The seeds we planted almost a year ago when we started to look for a new permanent home for MSP have finally taken root.  Now steel is rising out of a field in Freeport.

Our new building will be a 9600 square foot steel shed. She is being erected by Greg Patterson and his team at Patco Construction.  We're hoping to be in sometime this summer...  We'll keep you posted.
