MAYAN
This is the story of the schooner MAYAN. She was built in 1947 in Belize, then part of British Honduras, to design number 356 which John G. Alden of Boston originally drew in 1928. The second and only 356 to survive, she was designed as a centerboard transitional schooner to be cruised in the shallow waters of the Bahamas, Turks & Cacaos and to travel the Inter Coastal Waterway from New England to the cruising grounds to the south each year.
This site will provide her history and document her future. Her mission is to continue her long and successful history as a cruising yacht carrying her family to ports far and near. Thanks to the love and care that have been lavished on her over the decades, this lovely sixty-seven year old girl is better and strong that she was when she was launched and is readily to put to sea.
