Additonal info on the Ship:
A 40-foot gaff rigged sloop, the oldest oyster sloop in America and a National Historic Landmark. She was originally built in 1883 for Captain William Smith in Glenwood Landing, New York for the purpose of harvesting oysters in Oyster Bay and Cold Spring Harbor. Over her 120 years, serving not only as an oyster dredge but also as a cargo carrier and live-aboard between Connecticut, New York and New Jersey.  After surviving 16 major hurricanes, numerous nor’easters, two sinkings and severe neglect, she was returned home to Oyster Bay in 1992 and fully restored in 1999.
