Delaware once built a ship specifically for tight spots

4/25/2023 7:18:00 AM

by Dave Tabler

During the 19th century, mid-Atlantic shipbuilders grappled with the challenge of the narrow Chesapeake & Delaware (C&D) Canal. Jonathan M.C. Moore of Bethel, however, devised a solution.

If you like this clip, keep an eye out for my forthcoming book “Delaware from Railways to Freeways,” to learn more about Moore’s distinctive Chesapeake Ram sailing ship.
