*DISCLAIMER*
Naumkeag is the only vessel capable of landing on the island. In rare cases, it may depart but be unable to land on the beach due to high seas. Additionally, if it is temporarily out of service due to mechanical issues, the trip may be canceled, and you will be notified immediately. We make every effort to prevent this and resolve any issues quickly, but unforeseen mechanical failures can occur.
