The Building of the US Brig NIAGARA

Learn about the construction of the U.S. Brig NIAGARA, the official flagship of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania! Launched in 1988, NIAGARA sails today as a U.S. Coast Guard certified Sailing School Vessel, keeping alive the time-honored traditions of square-rigged seamanship through her live-aboard sailing programs.
The U.S. Brig NIAGARA and the Erie Maritime Museum are owned by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and administered by the Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission with the assistance of the Flagship Niagara League.

Had the privilege to work on this ship with my husband and youngest son one summer. Our eldest son and my husband worked several summers for 2 and 3 week stints. What a thrill and honor to be part of this brigg!

I found this video very interesting. My little model ship company just started work on the 1/700 1813 USS Lawrence. An 1813 USS Niagara is also on the ways.

I just came across pans for this ships reconstruction. Very cool. No idea if they are duplicates, or tourist plans
