Abstract:

The 72-foot gaff-rigged schooner Jeanie B is a reminder of Washington's past as a prosperous port on the Pamlico River. Instead of transporting naval stores or agricultural products, Jeanie B now transports passengers on cruises of the Pamlico River, Pamlico Sound, and adjacent waterways. It also is used as a training vessel to teach the basics of sailing to young, aspiring sailors.
