Seamen's Bank was incorporated in 1851 as Seamen's Savings Bank, a mutual savings bank catering to the small saver and average worker. The first complete Treasurer's Report to the Trustees occurred on January 15, 1853 and listed 30 depositors with total deposits of $3,295.00. Today the Bank has in excess of 16,000 accounts with deposits of $250,000,000 serving the Lower Cape.
The history of Seamen's Bank has closely paralleled that of the Lower Cape from the Glory Days of the Whaling Industry and the Grand Banks Schooners to the Artist Colonys and the growth of the Summer Resort and Tourist Industries.
