Chancellor, Museum ship and tug in Fulton, United States.
The Chancellor is a preserved tugboat located on the Hudson River in Fulton. The vessel features multiple decks with crew quarters, machinery spaces, and the typical working areas of an early-20th-century river tug.
The boat was built in the early 1900s and served for decades as a working vessel on the Hudson River. Its recognition on the National Register of Historic Places honors its importance to the region's maritime heritage.
The tugboat shows how these vessels were used in daily river work and their role in supporting local commerce. Visitors can see how the crew operated and lived in tight quarters aboard.
Visitors should wear sturdy shoes since the decks and stairs are tight and sometimes slippery. Climbing requires patience and care, particularly on the steep external ladders.
The vessel retained its original steam engine, rarely found in such working condition on museum boats. This engine gives visitors an authentic sense of how the ship was powered during its working years.
