Mystic Seaport's Historic Shipyard Preserves America's Sailing Heritage
The Mystic Seaport Museum has a working shipyard where historic ships come for restorative and preservation work. The ship builders here are trained in traditional shipbuilding methods, making this the perfect place for restoration and preservation of America’s treasures.
Currently, they are working on the Jamestown Settlement History Museum’s Flagship, the Susan Constant . While there was no active restoration in process, we were able to get up close and look at the ship in the yard and see some of the work being done on her.
