Help launch the "Heart o' Gloucester"!
Donation protected
My name is Jim Tarantino and I have been rowing dories in Gloucester Harbor for over 40 years! Now that I am retired, I am fulfilling a dream to build, and make available to the public, the "Heart o' Gloucester", a traditional Grand Banks Dory, for adventures and to honor the Maritime Heritage of Gloucester's great fishing history!
Summer of 2025, follow along as Sarah Lewine and I take her from Gloucester, MA to Lunenburg, Nova Scotia!
Every penny of funds raised will go to:
- Trailer and transportation
- Maintenance & dockage fees
- A webpage and provisions, where you will get updates on the 600-mile maiden voyage and future trips
