Sail through the heart of New England’s maritime charm, where scenic harbors and rich Deaf history meet. Begin in Newport, Rhode Island, and journey across the sparkling Atlantic to Block Island, Nantucket, and the storied shores of Martha’s Vineyard — once home to a thriving Deaf community where sign language flourished among both Deaf and hearing residents. Experience the coastal beauty of Cuttyhunk Island and return to Newport with memories of breathtaking sails, seaside towns, and a deep connection to American Deaf heritage. For those joining our Week 1 departure, celebrate July 4th on the water beneath dazzling fireworks — a truly unforgettable New England summer adventure.

Price is $2,400 USD per person based on two people sharing a cabin. An additional cost of $1,200 USD applies for a solo cabin.

A non-refundable $500 USD deposit is required to reserve your space.

Full payment is due 90 days before the adventure start date.
