Elk Spar & Boat Shop

MDI Classic Charters, owned and operated by Jim Elk of Elk Spar & Boatshop, has been offering a unique way to explore Mount Desert Island and her waters and outer islands for the past 20 years: on the deck of Premise, a classically beautiful wooden boat.

Whether you choose a day sail, a week-long or even a month-long charter, Premise will take you on a once in a lifetime adventure.
