measures:
26"L x 23"T x 6"W
Built in Bath, Maine during 1884, named after Seguin Island at the mouth of the
Kennebec River. The Seguin Tugboat at one time was our nation’s oldest operating
steam powered tugboat.. Her 85 year career consisted of towing sailing vessels
and barges laden with coal, lumber and ice along the Atlantic coast from Maine
to Virginia.
In the early 1900's, she became a New York harbor tug, finally returning to an
active career in Maine until retiring in 1967. The Seguin's pilothouse still serves
today as a concession stand at the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath.

"Dear Melissa,
I received the US Constitution in perfect condition!
I have been working a solid hour carefully
removing her from the crating. I can honestly say,
I am now an expert in performing this tedious task.
I want to thank you and your company for meeting
and surpassing my expectations not only in the
quality of the model ship but in the Great Customer
Service provided to insure my complete satisfaction.
In this day an age this is a hell of an accomplishment.
Best regards,
Tom Quartararo"
"Aloha,
Just wanted you to know I got the ship last week....
in perfect condition I may add, and it now graces my
living room - a reminder of my trip to see the REAL
Wasa in Stockholm last summer. Thank you very much!
