Description
The USS Constellation, the last sail-only powered American naval vessel built, is berthed in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. This historic sloop-of-war, one of several U.S. naval ships to bear the name USS Constellation, still retains a portion of its original live-oak timbers and pig-iron ballast. Renovation of the 160 year old warship was complete in 1999, with a price tag of nine million dollars. One of the most popular attractions in Baltimore's Inner Harbor, the USS Constellation is the only Civil War era ship that is still afloat.

Terrific colors and design, Ben! I enjoyed touring a historic ship in the southern peninsula of Maryland. The state has such wonderful maritime history and fabulous seafood! L
