I just happened to be at the Marina in Robinhood, Maine as this old ship was leaving on a flatbed trailer and headed for the Maine Maritime Museum in Bath, one town over from Brunswick, Maine. It was brought there first with some local fanfare but they did not have the facility necessary to taker out of the water so she was taken here for that task. As can be seen, the trailer is designed for just this purpose. A bit of the history is below. As stated, Teddy Charles, a very accomplished jazz musician owned her for some years. He dropped out of performing, left his family behind, and went to the Caribbean and became a ship's captain and did that for a number of years before returning to music. Mary E was built in Bath in 1906, by Thomas E. Hagan. For 38 years she was operated as a fishing and trade vessel out of Rhode Island. Her original four owners were William A. Dunn, Dwight A. Dunn, Curtis S. Dunn and Jesse Lewis, all of Block Island. For 38 years, these four men operated the vessel, mostly in the fisheries, but some years licensed for the coastal trade as well. Later owners told stories of her being used to carry mail and passengers, and as a rum-runner during Prohibition. In 1944 the Block Islanders sold Mary E to Edward P. Gleason of Gloucester who used her as a dragger. He fished her out of Gloucester before selling her to Clarence W. Leveille in 1950. Leveille continued fishing her out of Gloucester, but abandoned the vessel in 1960, and she sank in a Thanksgiving Day hurricane in 1963 in Lynn Harbor, Mass. Two years later, William R. Donnell II of Bath, great grandson of shipbuilder William T. Donnell, responded to a newspaper ad listing the “half sunken fishing schooner” for sale for $200. Knowing his great-grandfather had been an associate of Thomas Hagan, Donnell could not resist purchasing the vessel and raising it. He brought it to Bath and began a two-year renovation on the grounds of what is now the Maine Maritime Museum campus. Following her restoration, Mary E was used as a passenger vessel in the Maine Windjammer Fleet. In 1971 the vessel was sold to Robert Morse of Morse Marine in Boothbay Harbor, and later to influential jazz musician Teddy Charles who sailed her to New York where she was one of the first schooners sailing out of South Street Seaport. In 1990 Captain Charles moved her to Greenport where she was purchased by her current owner, Matt Culen. He purchased Mary E in 2006 and began a major restoration effort, moving her to the Connecticut River Maritime Museum docks where she has been running river tours every summer since.
