The Charles W. Morgan, Mystic Seaport, CT

The Charles W. Morgan, built in 1841 in New Bedford, Massachusetts, is the oldest American merchant ship afloat and the last surviving American wooden whaleship. It’s located at Mystic Seaport in Mystic, Connecticut, the largest maritime museum in the United States.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.
