Massive western timbers fuel Old Ironsides restoration
Four carloads of Douglas fir masts and spars, over 100 foot lengths, head to the Boston Navy Yard for rebuilding Old Ironsides. Washington Oregon timber donors claim a historic stockpile, with four main masts and multiple tops to be constructed. The Navy demands flawless, dense, defect-free stock, with Virginia live oak hull and original deck beams largely retained. The project has near full funding, aided by civic groups and schoolchildren, dating back to Congress in 1925.
