Schooner Virginia
The schooner VIRGINIA is a reproduction of the last all-sail vessel built for the Virginia Pilot Association. The original ship sailed for the pilots off the Virginia Capes from 1917-1926, training apprentice harbor pilots in seamanship and navigation. The new schooner, built and launched in Norfolk (near Harbor Park) in 2005, has been placed into service by the Nauticus Foundation and a dedicated group of schooner volunteer workers and crew members. The VIRGINIA is a platform for sail training and teaching maritime sciences, history, teamwork and leadership with an emphasis on the youth of Hampton Roads. The VIRGINIA serves the Nauticus mission to benefit our community through education, impactful experiences, and by sharing access to maritime resources.

The schooner VIRGINIA is berthed at Nauticus and open to the public for pier-side visitation. Volunteers are welcome…the VIRGINIA has a formal crew training program…experience not required. For volunteer information please contact schoonerinfo@nauticus.org or visit us on Facebook.
