Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

The crown jewel of the Mystic Seaport Museum, the Charles W. Morgan is the last of its kind. After five years of meticulous restoration, this magnificent tall ship, once a part of the 2,700 vessels-strong whaling fleet, sailed on its 38th journey. It spent more than 200 years on the world’s seas after being launched in 1841 from the New Bedford, Massachusetts shipyard of Jethro and Zachariah Hillman.

It sailed from Arctic waters to Cape Horn and survived hostile natives and even the Hurricane of 1938. Instead of hardened sailors, the decks of the beautiful historic ship are now receiving millions of tourists who learn an important story of America’s maritime heritage.
