Gov. Dewitt Clinton’s 1825 Canal Boat Construction and Historical Augmentation
In anticipation of the Erie Canal's 2025 bicentennial, the Buffalo Maritime Center will continue the construction and historical augmentation of Governor Dewitt Clinton’s 1825 Canal Boat. Specifically, this project will include the acquisition of additional resources that will allow implementation of structural and other building elements of the design of the Seneca Chief as an historically accurate Erie Canal Line Boat.
