The skipjack Sigsbee can be seen at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels, Md., on Sunday, July 9, 2017, with dockside tours available from 1-3 pm. Tours are free with general admission to CBMM, which is good for two days and is $15 for adults, $12 for seniors, $6 for children ages 6-17, and free for CBMM members and children ages 5 and under.
A historic oystering skipjack reconstructed for students, Sigsbee is operated by the Living Classrooms Foundation, with programs that engage students with hands-on activities, such as raising sail, testing the water with scientific equipment, trawling for marine life, and observing firsthand the factories, shipping, natural resources, and ecosystems of the Chesapeake Bay. For more information, or to learn about any of the vessels visiting CBMM’s waterfront campus this summer, visit cbmm.org.
