We have shortened our name from Bayfront Center for Maritime Studies to make it easier for everyone to know who we are and what we do.

Our Mission is the same.
The BMC mission is to: Develop and implement unique hands-on, maritime themed educational, vocational and recreational opportunities for the community in a universally accessible waterfront facility.
