Submit the accompanying order and recommend its adoption
Ordered: The members of the City Council of the City of Beverly, Massachusetts, wish
to extend their encouragement and support to Washington’s Naval Base, Inc. in it’s
continuing effort to create a historic landmark site to be called Washington’s Naval
Base at Beverly through non-profit fundraising on the city, state, regional and national
levels. We endorse the plan to memorialize Beverly’s contribution to the American
War of Independence in 1775 and 1776 through construction of a full-scale sailing
replica of the Armed Schooner Hannah. The Hannah of 1775 was commissioned at
Beverly by General George Washington on September 2 sailed from this port three
nd
days later on September 5, and was later referred to by General John Glover as
th
“the first armed vessel fitted-out in the service of the United States.” This tall-ship
Hannah replica will act as the centerpiece of a visitor showplace north of Boston on
the City’s waterfront, dedicated to Beverly’s unique naval history, and serve as a
regional maritime attraction alongside Gloucester’s Schooner Adventure to the north
and Salem’s East India Merchantman Friendship to the south. It will also enhance
and bring alive Beverly’s Privateer Trail dedicated on September 2, 2000 to celebrate
the 225 anniversary of the Armed Schooner Hannah and other vessels in
th
Washington’s Navy out of Beverly.
