Go Where the Big Ships Cannot - Sailing with Blount means navigating the waters less traveled in a personal, uncrowded way. It’s going places that are inaccessible to larger cruise ships, docking where private yachts dock, and getting away from manufactured experiences. On a Blount cruise, you’ll never stand in line or feel lost in the crowd. With only 83 passengers, every cruise experience feels exclusive and personal. Part of truly experiencing a place is savoring its local flavor. When you sail with Blount Small Ship Adventures, every meal is a feast for the senses. And our expert chefs ensure the cuisine is as much a part of the experience as the geography and the people. They shop the local farmer’s markets along the way so that you can dine on the freshest produce and salads, perfectly cooked meats and seafood, and decadent desserts.
The City of Boston has a large, active harbor. Like many water front cities, it has had fire boats for many years. Over the years, many large fires were battled by fire boats.
In the 1970's Boston built the "Firefighter" which has served for nearly 40 years. The city had several smaller boats as well. Boston recently replaced the "Firefighter" with a new boat
called the "John S. Damrell" in 2011. In 2016 Boston added another new boat, Marine 2, known as "Father Dan." This boat is a smaller aluminum outboard boat. A Search & Rescue Dive Team boat "Marine 3" the "Captain John Kenney" was put in service in 2010.
For more than 90 years, BHC and the Nolan family have been leading the way with outstanding cruises on Boston’s historic harbor. What began with a man, a boat and a vision has grown into today’s BHC; with 500 daily departures, 53 vessels and 250 year-round employees, plus a seasonal workforce topping 650. But don’t let our size fool you. BHC remains a small family business at heart, made up of people who love what they do and understand that what matters most is that passengers have a safe, enjoyable experience making memories to share with family and friends for a lifetime.
