Lettie G. Howard, Training schooner in South Street Seaport, United States.

The Lettie G. Howard extends 74.6 feet in length with a wooden hull, two masts, and a beam measuring 21 feet at South Street Seaport Museum.

Built in Essex, Massachusetts in 1893, this Fredonia schooner operated in Georges Banks until 1901 before moving to fish red snapper near the Yucatan Peninsula.

The vessel serves as an educational platform where students learn traditional sailing techniques, maritime history, and practical navigation skills through hands-on experiences.

The schooner accommodates training programs throughout the year, with a professional crew of seven members guiding educational sailing expeditions along the northeast coast.

This vessel stands as the final remaining example of Fredonia type fishing schooners that once populated the North Atlantic waters during the 19th century.
