SILENT MAID, the beautiful Jersey catboat, was built in Workshop on the Water in Independence Seaport Museum. She is red cedar over white oak frames, copper riveted, with Spanish cedar and mahogany trim. 33' long with a 50' mast flying a huge gaff rigged sail with the original T 82 number, she is a grand sight.

Sailed her to Maine and back to NJ summer 2010. She is a comfy cat as well as fast.
