BONUS: 17th Century Ships are Like Classic Cars

6 minutes

BONUS content from Episode 5, "The Lost City: Historic St. Mary’s City, Maryland." 

Dr. Regina Faden and I head down to Historic St. Mary's City's Waterfront exhibit, where we board the Maryland Dove, a replica 17th century sailing ship. The ship's Boatswain, Jeremy, talks to us about what it's like working on a historic ship and why old boats are like classic cars.  

Music in this episode is by Hesperus, from their album An Early American Quilt, released on the Maggie’s Music Label.
