2014 Custom Eastern Shipbuilding Schooner

Columbia is a 141-foot steel schooner completed in 2014, built as a modern replica of the historic 1923 Gloucester fishing schooner. The design draws on original plans, integrating contemporary construction methods and materials while maintaining the classic schooner aesthetic. She has a 25.5-foot beam and is powered by a single Caterpillar diesel engine of 587 hp, capable of 13 knots at full speed and cruising comfortably at 10 knots.

The yacht accommodates guests and crew across 16 cabins with 8 heads, making her suited for group charters, corporate use, or live-aboard operation. Her layout and generous beam provide spacious interior volume and outdoor deck areas characteristic of working schooner design adapted for modern comfort.

Columbia has been expertly maintained since her commissioning by the original owner. The steel hull and robust construction reflect the care invested in her build and ongoing operation.
