Description

Save the Seals River Cruise
A sunset cruise along the Merrimack River with the NH Marine Mammal Rescue Team

Sunday, September 13, 2015, 5-8 pm

 

Join the Seacoast Science Center and Newburyport Whale Watch for a special river cruise and silent auction to benefit the Center's Marine Mammal Rescue and ocean education efforts. While cruising the Merrimack River aboard the Captain's Lady III, we'll enjoy heavy hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar while searching for seals, cruising the river, and viewing the sunset. Marine Mammal Rescue Team members will regale our crew with stories from the field and explain how their work on the New Hampshire and Northern Massachusetts coast plays an important role in monitoring ocean health.
 
All proceeds from the Save the Seals River Cruise benefit our marine mammal rescue and ocean education efforts. The seals can't pay to be rescued, so we rely on our community to help keep our Team ready to respond to every marine mammal that hauls out or strands on the New Hampshire and Northern Massachusetts coast. 
 

Tickets are $50 per person. 

Please note that actual tickets will not be mailed; your name will be included on the list of registered guests when you arrive. The boat will leave from 54 Merrimac Steet, Newburyport, MA. Parking is available for a small fee. The boat will begin boarding at 4:45 PM. Thank you.


You must be 21 or over to attend.
