Anchored In Community

Out front, you’ll spot a real anchor — pulled from the bay by a local diver and placed here as a lasing reminder of our deep ties to the Alexandria Bay community. In 1998, our family transformed an old restaurant into The Ship Gift Shop, and we’ve been welcoming visitors ever since.
