Bath Maine is known as the City of Ships. It’s location is on
the west side of a navigable, straight, 5-mile stretch of the Kennebec River, a
site that has proven to be ideal for shipbuilding for more than 200 years. We
visited the Maine Maritime Museum, very
interesting to see whether you’re a sailor or land lubber, made more so by the
fact that one of our host’s family had much to do with the shipping industry.
