Schooner Mahdee Hats

Everyone needs a hat. Especially a schooner hat. In particular a Schooner Mahdee hat. Indeed it’s a nice thing. We’ve been thinking about custom boat hats for Mahdee for a while now — and here we have them for Schooner Mahdee friends and followers — or just about anyone who’d like to have a nice hat with a good looking schooner on it.
This low profile pigment dyed cap is perfect aboard the boat to keep the sun and salt spray out of your eyes and looks great for wearing around town, too. The 100% garment-washed cotton and cotton twill, 6-panel, unstructured, low-profile hat with bill, includes a nice tuck-away leather adjustable strap with antiqued brass buckle and grommet. Inside, it has a matching cotton sweat band and a Cool-Crown mesh lining.
Visit the Schooner Mahdee store in the Schooner Chandlery marketplace where you can select one of six colors from two nautical color paths–the first path includes bright Poppy red, Forest green, and Royal blue; the second more traditional color path includes Spruce green, Midnight blue, and Burgundy red. All hats are embroidered in antique white and golden brown threads with the Schooner Mahdee name and feature Mahdee under full sail.
Best buddies

David and Beryl spend a lot of quality time together. Cockpit snoozing in the California Delta is just one of many joint endeavors for this duo.

Sometimes Beryl keeps David’s feet warm while he’s catching up on professional reading–in this case in Taku Harbor during a rainy Southeast Alaska day.

Or, better yet, she helps him stand watch if he happens to be sitting inside the charthouse–like this time during an endless series of watches while we traveled over 4000 nautical miles up and down the west coast last year.

And, there’s always the chance to be the lookout-helper when it’s foggy outside.
Finally, there’s nobody better than Beryl to help David decide when to eat the blackberries he’s collected.
