After a sold out Lighthouse Legends and Lore Cruise earlier this summer, the Maine Maritime Museum and Red Cloak Haunted History Tours are offering three more cruises before the season ends.

A portion of the proceeds from Lighthouse Legends and Lore cruises will go to benefit the restoration campaign at the historic Burnt Island lighthouse in Boothbay Harbor.

The first scheduled cruise departs from the Maine Maritime Museum at 3 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 16 aboard the museum excursion vessel Merrymeeting. The other cruises are scheduled for Friday, Sept. 30 and Friday, Oct. 7.

Passengers aboard the Lighthouse Legends and Lore Cruises will see up to seven lighthouses, depending on weather and sea conditions. Those destinations could include Doubling Point Light, Hendricks Head Light, Seguin Island Light, Ram Island Light and The Cuckolds. The visit to Burnt Island will include landing on the island for an up-close look at the keeper’s house and other facilities, including the majestic Burnt Island Light tower.

Guests will learn the stories behind these iconic beacons; about the lives of some of the keepers and their families - daily routines, traditions and hardships, as well as the legends and lore surrounding them.

The tours will be guided by Sally Lobkowicz, the mysterious Lady in the Red Cloak from Red Cloak Haunted History Tours.
