Lynx - America's Privateer

Lynx

The Privateer Lynx is a unique National Treasure. Launched in 2001 on plans dating from the War of 1812, the Lynx brings American history back from the past and immerses students in lessons about this nations founding and its defense of

freedom. Today, the modern version of the Lynx serves as a floating classroom where students from a variety of institutions learn about the War of 1812 and the heroic struggle of privateer vessels to foil the British navy; they learn, as well, about the sea and sailing ships and about the teamwork required to keep a craft like the Lynx afloat.
