Did you know we have a boat donation program?

GIVING THE GIFT OF SAILING:Lester Howard of Fall River (MA) donated this handsome 26-foot C&C sailboat to the Battleship Cove Community Boating Program. Boasting an estimated value of nearly $5000, the boat was used for a whole summer for youth and adult sailing instruction, and for the program's Community Outreach Days, which permit groups of all ages to sail around Battleship Cove with a qualified instructor.

If you or someone you know is interested in donating a boat, please contact our Director of Sailing and Waterfront Activities.

PLANNED GIVING: Endowment gifts of $10K or more entitle donors to membership in the exclusive Bell Society at Battleship Cove.

Bell Society members receive a custom-cast bronze replica of the USS Massachusetts bell, and permanent recognition of the Bell Society Honor Roll on Board BB59.
