Work began back in November when SMECO and Southern Maryland Crane Rental assisted with removing the Dee\u2019s mast. The Patuxent Small Craft Guild members, Dee of St. Mary\u2019s captains and crew members worked diligently over the winter to clean and refinish the wood, and replace most of the rigging and the hardware. Their work also included repair and refinishing of the boom.<\/p>\n<p>The Dee of St. Mary\u2019s was commissioned and built in 1979 in Piney Point, Maryland. Originally used as a commercial oyster fishing boat for 10 years, she is now a floating classroom educating children about the history of the Chesapeake Bay. Public sails aboard the Dee begin in May and will go throughout the summer; public charters are available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Dee of St. Mary\u2019s mast was re-stepped (re-installed) thanks to the collective teamwork of many people and local businesses.
