About This Event
What is more exciting than a wonderful cruise with a story unlike any other? Cruise the Cape Fear for 90 minutes and learn of the night, on a rare snowy evening, when the famed Steamer Wilmington encountered two Revolutionary soldiers' ghosts. Enjoy a tall tale first published in 1988, told by Burgwin-Wright House and Gardens Assistant Museum Director Hunter Ingram, while you sail into the season with themed cocktails or beverages. Please plan ahead, this exciting fall cruise will surely sellout. Also save the date for a Christmas themed holiday cruise on December 5th.
