The Blount Small Ship cruise vessels are uniquely built with features not found on any other small cruise ship – they are one-of-a kind.   

Blount designed its boats to sail where others cannot. The shallow 6’ draft vessels can traverse inland waterways and canals. The vessels glide under low bridges with retracted pilot houses. The bow ramps permit bow landings on virtually any beach.  These vessels can bring you up close to local cultures, hidden treasures, and life changing memories.

The Blount small ship cruise vessels have traveled to destinations no other cruise line can duplicate.

  • Marvel at the engineering feat of the Erie Canal as you travel the entire length of this history changing waterway… a Blount original.
  • Enjoy the thrill of bow landings on pristine Caribbean beaches… no other cruise line can do this.
  • Travel up the Rio Dulce river from the comfort of your Blount ship… an experience no other cruise line can offer.
  • Sail through the legendary 1,000 Islands on your way to the Saguenay River – a Blount classic.

The fleet of three US flagged cruise ships are currently for sale by owner and open for viewing by appointment at the Blount Boats facility in Warren, Rhode Island.
