Whidbey Island Maritime Heritage Foundation Maritime Heritage and Sail Tours on Whidbey Island |
The Whidbey Island Maritime Heritage Foundation (WIMHF) was founded to preserve the maritime heritage of Coupeville, Penn Cove, and Whidbey Island through education, outreach, and public awareness.
Central to our mission is the Schooner Suva. Originally built in 1925 for Coupeville resident Frank Pratt, the vessel is now owned by WIMHF and operated by our trained volunteer crew in accordance with United States Coast Guard regulations.
Whidbey Island has a rich maritime history dating back to the late 1700s. Our goal is to gather and share these historical stories and experiences while creating new memories for our community.
Join us today to help preserve the maritime heritage of Whidbey Island, Coupeville, and Penn Cove. For those who wish to provide ongoing support, please consider becoming a Sustaining Member with automatic monthly billing.
