Ensure Maine’s working waterfronts
survive & thrive.
Sea Meadow is a Maine non-profit dedicated to the working waterfront: keeping it open to all who earn a living from the sea, expanding opportunities for new livelihoods, and nurturing technological innovation.
We are based in our tenant-informed, collaborative working boat yard on the Cousins River in Yarmouth, and we work with a rapidly expanding collection of partners and projects across Maine. We exist to support and advance Maine’s working waterfront stakeholders, operators, and communities.
Our focused & urgent mission.
Get involved.

“Maine is built on the working waterfront. It’s part of our economy and part of our lifestyle. We want to talk with other stakeholders in the marine industry and let them know we’re trying to do good things for the coast of Maine. If the working waterfront goes away, it’s not coming back.”
Chad Strater, President, Sea Meadow
