As one of only 4 fully-operational WWII ships in the country, the American Victory Ship ventures out on our critically-acclaimed Relive History Cruises twice per year. The cruises, which normally take place in the spring and fall, will allow you to take pleasure in sailing throughout the Channel aboard our maritime vessel, relive historic traditions, enjoy music and entertainment and feast on breakfast, lunch and a snack. At the current time, the ship must enter dry dock per the U.S. Coast Guard prior to sailing again. We will be announcing our next cruise following this dry dock process.
