Canton Maritime is a private holding company that owns, operates, and maintains its own recreational vessels on the Patapsco River and the Chesapeake Bay.
Canton Maritime is a private holding company based on the Baltimore waterfront, formed to hold title to and care for our own recreational vessels. We do not offer commercial services, charters, or third-party operations.
Our mandate is simple: own our vessels, operate them responsibly for private use, and maintain them to a standard that honors the tradition of the harbor we call home.
USCG guidelines, pre-departure checks, and conservative seamanship govern every outing.
Proactive maintenance schedules keep hulls, engines, and systems in top condition.
Based in Canton on the Patapsco, with deep ties to the Chesapeake Bay community.
Three disciplines applied to our own vessels — private ownership held to a standard we're proud of.
We hold title to our vessels directly, taking full responsibility for their condition, compliance, and long-term value.
Our vessels are used privately and responsibly — pre-departure checks, conservative seamanship, and respect for the waters we share.
A disciplined care program — seasonal service, systems checks, and prompt repair — keeps our vessels seaworthy year-round.
We keep our vessels on the Patapsco River, with the Chesapeake Bay close at hand.
Moored in Baltimore, with the waterfront neighborhoods of Canton and Fells Point as our home base.
Private cruising across the Bay — from Annapolis to the Eastern Shore — with attention to weather, tides, and seasonal conditions.
Spring commissioning and fall winterization on the same disciplined schedule each year, so the vessels are ready when we are.
