After the USA became independent in 1783, it lost the protection of the English fleet.
The USA had a world-wide trading fleet and whaling.
It decided to build a fleet of six Constitution class ships.
In 1796 the Constitution was completed.
It was designed to be competitive with contemporary ships.
To do this it was more heavily armed than other frigates but faster than bigger ships.
This fleet went on to a distinguished career, especially the USS Constitution.
By 1816 the USS Constitution was retired as a warship, but went on to be a flagship of the fleet because of its beauty.
Wood in sea water deteriorates and scraping the remains of the ship was reasonable by the 1840’s
A poem rallied support for saving the ship.
It went on to various uses.
It sailed around the world.
It was used as a training ship, a barracks, storage.
It received different restorations.
It was used to raise funds, going on towed tour of American Cities.
It was recently restored and actually sailed.
It is there in Boston Harbor where it was built and can be toured.
