                                                                <div style="margin-bottom:10px"> I am reaching out to maritime sites to inquire if you’d be interested in the transfer of an artifact from our collection – the Steam Tug Baltimore, 1906. We are looking for a new home for the ST Baltimore. The ST Baltimore is the oldest coal fired steam tug in the US. As much as we’d like to keep her, we realize we are not the best place for her. The volunteer corps who once managed her maintenance has moved on and the staff here is not equipped to handle a living artifact. We are looking to transfer her to another entity that has a maritime focus and can do a better job in telling her unique story. The tug came to us in 1981, was restored, and ran for a number of years, operated and maintained by a large volunteer corps. She comes with a complete log and supporting documents of maintenance history, photographs, etc., plus a shipping container full of material to support her care. She is a National Historic Landmark. Steam enthusiasts relish her as an early 20th century steam powered boiler operation. The ST Baltimore on the East Coast, and the ST Hercules (NPS) on the West Coast are considered to be the foremost examples of steam tugboat history. The best general description of the ST Baltimore is on our website. <a href="http://www.thebmi.org/exhibitions-collections/permanent-exhibitions/steam-tug-baltimore/" target="_blank">http://www.thebmi.org/exhibitions-collections/permanent-exhibitions/steam-tug-baltimore/</a> Vessel Data can be provided. Would you be interested? If you need any more information please don’t hesitate to ask.                                                                                                                                                                                                                        </div>
