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 we 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
