About the Lois McClure
The Lois McClure is operated by the Lake Champlain Maritime museum, located in Vergennes, Vermont. This canal boat is a replica of an 1862-class sailing canal boat. This replica was created by studying two shipwrecks located in Burlington Harbor, Vermont. The two shipwrecks are now part of the Lake Champlain Underwater Historic Preserve System.
