I normally don’t focus on small ship lines but Blount Small Ship Adventures always had a special place in my heart. Probably because I went to College down the street from their headquarters in Warren, RI. I even visited once.
Anyways, the line formally known as American Canadian Caribbean Line, celebrated their 45th year in business. In celebrating this event they announced new and enhanced itineraries. The one of a kind vessels will explore some new routes along the Mississippi and Canada & New England.
The itineraries go by the names:
* Journey through Central America: Belize to Guatemala
* Gems of the Virgin Islands
* Caribbean Spectacular: St. Maarten & Antigua
* Bahama Beachlovers: Caicos to Nassau
* Skylines and Islands: New York City to Toronto
* Discover Ontario: Scenic Georgian Bay
* Charming Chesapeake Bay
* Cultures and Traditions: Charleston to the Chesapeake
Quote from President Nancy Blount {who I actually met, well she said “hi” to me}:
“When my father founded this company in 1966, his vision was to take our passengers to destinations that the big ships simply couldn’t reach. Last year, we changed our name to Blount Small Ship Adventures to honor my father and our company’s visionary, Captain Luther H. Blount. Today I’m so pleased that we can celebrate the success of his business with exhilarating new cruise itineraries and special onboard opportunities for our guests.”
