Floating Bar, Grand Banks at Pier 25, Is Open for the Season | Eater NY

"A 142-foot, sail-powered cod-fishing schooner, the Sherman Zwicker was acquired from the Maine Maritime Museum and retrofitted into the restaurant Grand Banks; I was told it required months of renovation and that the brothers have had to rebuild its guts four times over. I saw how its historic charm drew hipsters and Wall Streeters alike during that opening summer, and how the vessel's small galley, low-capacity heads, and susceptibility to tides (illustrated by the super-moon near-collision) underscored the unique operational challenges of running a restaurant on a boat." - Paul Greenberg

This place was very neat! We stopped here on out way up the coast of Maine. They offer many different boat tours of the river too. We did the lighthouse sites one and were able to see 6 lighthouses on a 2 hour tour. It was beautiful. While out on the water we got to see some bald eagles, a bald eagle nest, some seals and or course many other forms or wild life. It was well worth the cost, and it really wasn't even exspensive! It also got us free entrance into the museum too. When we return to ME, we plan to stop here again!

Excellent. I recommend anyone who has any sense of history visit this exhibition. Also the boat tour is really worth the money. Well run organization! Highly recommend

Such a cool museum. The campus is expansive and covers info on ship building. I really liked the buildings to the west with the blacksmith and boat builders working. The Wyoming monument is also incredible!

Great museum. It easily appeals to a wide variety of interests and attention levels. Lots of maritime history for adults balanced with hands-on learning for children. We visited during the Chris van Dusen exhibit. First of all, grab one of Chris’s books—they are amazing. Second, the exhibit was, again, a fine balance between hands-on for kids, but a deeper dive into the process of writing Children’s literature. The gift shop is also great. Reasonable prices and a variety of items. The gift shop introduced me to Ruth Moore, Maine author. She would make a great subject for a future exhibit!

Took a cruise to view the Kennebec River lights, Fort Popham, Sequin Light, and all the water in-between. Lovely trip; friendly, knowledgeable crew. Toured the museum grounds before the cruise, which are well worth visiting of themselves. Will be returning.

Such an amazing place to see to learn the history of ship building in Maine! My BF has wanted to check this place out for years, and since we were in town for my birthday we did. We both love history, so thoroughly enjoyed the exhibits!

Really cool place! Bruce the blacksmith and Jeff the house tour guide were really great. We learned so much! The woodfire pizza place was really yummy too! Lots of walking.

I love all things nautical and this is no exception. It shows the history of the area and shipbuilding in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The boat tour was nice and gave a good view of the building of ships at Bath Iron Works. I was impressed by the actual triple expansion steam engine which showed one in motion.
