Edna E. Lockwood, Museum ship at Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, St. Michaels, Maryland, US.

The Edna E. Lockwood measures 53.5 feet in length with a beam of 15.25 feet and features a traditional nine-log hull construction of locally sourced pine timber.

Built in 1889 by John B. Harrison on Tilghman Island, this vessel operated as an oyster dredging boat and freight carrier until 1967 under multiple owners.

The vessel represents traditional Chesapeake Bay maritime craftsmanship through its log-based construction method, similar to dugout canoe building techniques.

Visitors can examine the restored vessel at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, where it maintains its 1910 appearance with the characteristic patent stern.

The Edna E. Lockwood stands as the last working oyster boat of its type with an original nine-log bottom construction in the United States.
