THE CHESAPEAKE LOG WINTER 2020 3 president’s letter URING THE LATTER HALF OF SEPTEMBER, I attended the 19th biennial conference for the International Congress of Maritime Museums, along with 122 attendees from 29 countries— some folks even had an accent like mine. I presented two papers: one was on the work CBMM has achieved in partnership with Mystic Seaport on sustainability and eliminating single-use plastics from our campuses. The response I received from the presentation was quite enlightening. Other museums have been trying to take this first step, and now they know we have created a handbook on how. Others are now encouraged to take the bit between the teeth. Because of this presentation, ICMM has now formed an action group— the Marine Conservation Committee—to work toward an international platform for tackling single-use plastics and more. (And you can guess who was appointed chair of that committee…) My second presentation was on transferring technical skills, focusing on our work in CBMM’s Shipyard. The reaction to this paper really It’s becoming astounded me. In many respects, CBMM is now at the forefront of doing extremely difficult just this. An attendee from Genoa bemoaned the fact that Italy now has no artisans with the abilities to build traditional wooden ships—and it to recruit highly isn’t just Italy. So, why is what CBMM is doing so very important that it has been skilled workers recognized on a national, and now international, scale? The preservation mastering specific and transfer of traditional boatbuilding skills in our Shipyard is a conscious effort we have made at CBMM that is mission related—CBMM traditional is dedicated to preserving and exploring the history, environment, and culture of the entire Chesapeake Bay region and making this resource boatbuilding. available to all. If we don’t, traditional ship- and boatbuilding skills could These skills help us become extinct. As we experienced with our recruitment efforts for the Maryland Dove project, it’s becoming extremely difficult to recruit highly better understand skilled workers mastering specific traditional boatbuilding. These skills help us better understand seafaring and maritime communities from the seafaring past. We can also become more open to theories about the connections and maritime between timber, tools, labor, and the social world within which that building took place. communities from As I explained to my museum colleagues, our Apprentice for A Day program, Rising Tide After-School Boatbuilding program, and Shipwright the past. Apprentice program inherit the engaging hands-on nature of preserving and teaching these skills. These experiences, shared person to person, connect with our guests and generate memorable moments for them CBMM President that are authentic to the Chesapeake region. This is a true example of our Kristen L. Greenaway on the strategic focus to engage the public through our mission. I see this every importance of CBMM’s efforts single day I walk out on to the Shipyard.

    NPS Form 10-900 USDI/NPS NRHP Registration Form (Rev. 8-86) OMB No. 1024-0018 USS CONSTELLATION Page 4 United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Registration Form Summary The USS Constellation’s career in naval service spanned one hundred years: from commissioning on July 28, 1855 at Norfolk Navy Yard, Virginia to final decommissioning on February 4, 1955 at Boston, Massachusetts. (She was moved to Baltimore, Maryland in the summer of 1955.) During that century this sailing sloop-of-war, sometimes termed a “corvette,” was nationally significant for its ante-bellum service, particularly for its role in the effort to end the foreign slave trade. It is also nationally significant as a major resource in the mid-19th century United States Navy representing a technological turning point in the history of U.S. naval architecture. In addition, the USS Constellation is significant for its Civil War activities, its late 19th century missions, and for its unique contribution to international relations both at the close of the 19th century and during World War II. At one time it was believed that Constellation was a 1797 ship contemporary to the frigate Constitution moored in Boston. This led to a long-standing controversy over the actual identity of the Constellation. Maritime scholars long ago reached consensus that the vessel currently moored in Baltimore is the 1850s U.S. navy sloop-of-war, not the earlier 1797 frigate. Describe Present and Historic Physical Appearance. The USS Constellation, now preserved at Baltimore, Maryland, was built at the navy yard at Norfolk, Virginia.

    Bibliography The bibliography includes publication data for every work cited in the source notes of the articles. It should be noted that while there are more than a thousand titles listed, this bibliography can by no means be considered exhaustive. Taken together, the literature on the Titanic, Bounty, and Columbus’s Niña, Pinta, and Santa María comprises hundreds of books and articles. Even a comprehensive listing of nautical bibliographies is impossible here, though four have been especially helpful in researching this book: Bridges, R.C., and P. E. H. Hair.
