Schooner 'Madeleine'

Newport, RI view map

The 72-foot Madeleine is a replica of a racing yacht by the same name. Launched in 1868, the original
Madeleine defended the America's Cup against the Canadian Countess of Dufferin in 1876. This
Madeleine was built specifically to operate cruise tours of Newport Harbor and Narragansett Bay.

She also heels over tacking into a stiff wind. A lot.
