Samuel Slater Canal Boat

Named in honor of the father of the American Industrial Revolution, Samuel Slater, this 40-foot canal boat is the only one of its kind in nearby American waters. The boat is a reminder of the two decades (from 1828 – 1848), when canal boats were a common sight on the Blackstone River and the nearby Blackstone Canal. Built in Cambridgeshire, England, this authentic British canal boat can host up to 4 people for a unique overnight experience. Complete with cozy wood features all around you, the Slater has all that you’ll need for that special getaway!
