About us
Who we are
The Dawn Sailing Barge Trust was formed in 1996 when the old skipper of the Thames Sailing Barge Dawn could not bear the
thought of his barge being left to rot where she sat in Hoo alongside others she had traded
with for nearly 100 years.
The aim of the Trust was to secure ownership, raise funds, return her to her home port of
Maldon, restore and protect.
All of the above was achieved and SB Dawn is good for another 100 years.
Now it’s time for Dawn to get to work and play her part in helping give others a new
horizon to aim for.
