I see this ship often. The 81 foot (LOA) Argia makes her way down the Mystic River three times a day, offering two-and-a-half-hour cruises. She is one of the busier boats around. Much of the cruise is consumed by motoring the river, but south of Morgan Point the sails are hoisted. Built in Virginia in 1986, she is a two masted, gaff topsail schooner.
Recently, on an evening sail to West Harbor, I spotted her with a festive crowd enjoying the sunset.

Schooners are the greatest invention ever! Beautiful!
Beautiful! And I see quite some people on there:)
Great images. Love the scope of them.
These photos are really beautiful, some of the best I've seen. The top one almost looks like a painting. Definitely make a print of that one!
I love sail boats, they are truly graceful yet powerful. I'll share some of my picture collection soon.
Thanks everyone!
Everything came together on these shots; beautiful ship, clear skies, sunset, no other boats around, etc.
Those are lovely photos. What a pretty ship.
