I am sure you could Steve. Just at the inner harbor we have the USS Constellation which is the last all sail ship built for the US navy.We also have the Lightship Chesapeake, The USS Torsk SS-423 a Tench Class submarine that sank the last japanese ship of WW2. And then we have one of only 2 preserved Secretary Class Coast Guard Cutters on permanent display as a museum ship. The USCGC Taney was stationed in Pearl Harbor on December 7,1941. We also have Fort McHenry and a few other places as well.

The Torsk is the only preserved submarine to still have her original snorkel from her 1952 Fleet snorkel conversion.

Good day Pat, Clint and all who amble through here. It is not a drop top day here. Rained most of the night and off and on during the day.
