Bagheera, Historic schooner at Maine State Pier, Portland, United States

The Bagheera stretches 72 feet in length with white oak frame, pine planking, mahogany rails, and a black hull measuring 14 feet in beam.

Naval architect John Alden designed this two-masted schooner in 1924, which later participated in competitive racing on the Great Lakes until 1938.

The vessel operates as a floating classroom for Saint Joseph's College students studying marine ecology, oceanography, and environmental sciences in Casco Bay.

Portland Schooner Company manages sailing tours from Memorial Day through Columbus Day, departing regularly from the Old Port district.

The interior maintains its original ship wheel and wooden elements, representing early 1900s naval architecture while incorporating modern safety features.

Location: Portland

Inception: 1923

Architects: John Alden
