Frigate Richmond Burned On Soney Beach Eastport Maine
A mass of twisted metal and charred timbers marks the end of the frigate Richmond once a Pride of the United States Navy. Built in 1545, she served as admiral's flagship in the Civil War and was camouflaged during bombardments. Recommissioned for the Spanish‑American War, she later became a training ship and was finally towed to Eastport where Capt. John J. Furner set her ablaze before diving in Passamaquoddy Bay. The eastern Maine coast beach has hosted the destruction of four other wooden frigates in past years.
