About
Embark from a historically rich coastal town known for Mount Mitchill, the highest point on the eastern seaboard south of Maine. The open water provides a serene setting for family and friends to say their final goodbyes. Upon request we have an extensive selection of prayers, songs, quotes, music options and more. Every charter is private and can be personalized to you and your loved one’s wishes.
Included in the Accompanied Memorial Service:
- Logistics & Coordination: Guidance for family and friends to the event location. This includes any transportation assistance needed.
- Permits & Approvals: All permits and approvals are covered, making the event streamlined and stress free. This includes filing the required report with the EPA for ash scattering at sea.
- Personalized Ceremony: The event can be personalized for any wishes within reason. The ceremony is often led by a member of the family. Upon request we can provide a list of common prayers, eulogies, songs, etc. Many of our captains have experience as a memorial at sea officiant. Please inquire if you would like the ceremony to be led by the captain / an officiant.
Photography options and recording the GPS coordinates of exact scattering location is available with every service.
