Herreshoff Marine Museum

The Herreshoff Marine Museum / America's Cup Hall of Fame is dedicated to the education and inspiration of the public through presentations of the history and innovative work of the Herreshoff Manufacturing Company and the America's Cup competition. We celebrate excellence in design, disruptive innovation and advanced manufacturing. HMCo began in 1878 and was the creation of two brothers. J.B. the blind brother, was an extraordinary businessman, and Nathanael, the "Wizard of Bristol", became America's preeminent yacht designer. The Museum, bordering beautiful Narragansett Bay, in Bristol, Rhode Island, is one of the nation's most important historic maritime treasures and offers a variety of compelling programming including classic yacht regattas, symposia on classic yacht design and restoration and a unique experiential STEAM education program. Here at HMM, we can offer your business team a custom program designed to inspire innovative thinking and tailored to your industry and your unique business challenges. Our Business Advisory Team is made up of a broad range of active and retired executives, each with a unique ability to relate the history and success of the Herreshoff Manufacturing Company and its founders to the challenges and opportunities facing today's companies.
