Between 1985 and 1990, 165 volunteers gave 40,000 hours to create the
Schooner MADELINE,
a 92-ft twin-masted replica of an 1840's commercial vessel. She served
as the first schoolhouse in the region during the winter of 1850-51,
and
later carried settlers to Beaver Island. When not on tour at Great
Lakes
ports, The MADELINE is berthed at Elmwood Township 'Coal Dock'
(Heritage
Harbor)- West Bayshore, just south of the Elmwood Township Marina. Map
of Heritage Harbor, Traverse City, The Madeline is open to
all visitors.
