How It Works
Each member of our crew is invited to participate in the Flagship Four. We ask them one simple question: Which local cause matters most to you?
From a list of non-profit organizations who have applied, each crew member personally selects one to receive a "Flagship Four" donation: four cruise tickets to be used for the organization’s fundraising auctions, raffles, or volunteer appreciation efforts.
From local animal shelters and youth sports teams to historical societies and food pantries, the Flagship Four ensures that our support reaches every corner of the community. It is our way of ensuring that the "Smile of the Great Spirit" shines on the organizations that keep the Lakes Region strong.
The Power of the Fleet
While a single donation is a small gesture, the collective impact of our crew is a powerful force for good. By empowering our team to support the causes they are passionate about, we can provide a wave of support across the state.

"I chose my local Youth Hockey Association for my donation. My kids grew up on the ice, and I know how much work goes into keeping those programs affordable for local families." — Member of the Deck Crew

Frequently asked questions
Can I speak with someone about a possible donation?
Given the number of requests we receive annually, we do not have the ability to accommodate in person or phone requests, especially during our operating season.
Once I submit a request, how do I get status updates?
If a donation is granted by a member of the crew, we will reach out to you via the email provided with your request.
Am I able to make special requests for a donation, such as a brunch or dinner cruise?
The Flagship Four program is only for Narrated Scenic Tours on the M/S Mount Washington. We unfortunately cannot accept specific requests for other cruises or vessels.
If my request is approved, how will I receive the certificate?
All certificates are sent by email, and we are only able to sent to the email address accompanying the request.

How long is a certificate valid?
