Anchor's Away Travel

HistoryIn 1910 E.B. Blount & Sons Oyster Company in Warren, Rhode Island was a thriving family business. But in 1938 the Great New England Hurricane changed everything.The devastation left Blount's oyster beds in shambles. Two years later Luther Blount transformed the family business from oysters to shipbuilding. In doing so he found a new calling in shipbuilding. Luther found inspiration for future cruise itineraries by personally delivering the vessels he built. With his signature sense of determination, this vision soon became American Canadian Caribbean Line, a new small ship cruise line, offering voyages unlike any others available. Luther passed the reins of the cruise business to his daughter Nancy in 2006 and his boat building business is now led by daughters Marcia and Julie. In 2010, after a complete retrofit of the fleet, what was once American Canadian Caribbean Line was rebranded to honor the legacy of the man who started it all.
