1927 Classic · Swansboro, North Carolina
Step aboard the Juniata — a mahogany 1927 commuter cruiser — for an intimate trip through the local estuaries, past familiar coastal landmarks, with the water at a gentler pace.
A vessel with a past — and a place here
Launched in 1927, the Juniata carries the warmth of a classic mahogany cruiser into a new chapter on the North Carolina coast. At the helm is Capt. Joe, whose maritime experience and easygoing storytelling make the boat — and its history — part of the day.
