Old Ironsides Returns to Water in Boston Harbor
The frigate Constitution, nicknamed Old Ironsides, was undocked in Boston and returned to the harbor after extensive refitting. Nearly 2,900 spectators, mostly children, watched as the ship resumed its place in the water amid plans to complete remaining work and resume sea service by late spring. The project, funded by schoolchildren and public funds, has spent roughly 612,000 dollars with about 199,000 on deck replacements and 12 percent more to finish the reconditioning.
