Florence was built in 1926 by Franklin G. Post along the Mystic River and was used as a dragger in Long Island Sound. In 1982 Florence was acquired by Mystic Seaport and completely restored to her original configuration. Florence is the only working dragger in a museum collection. Florence is now used to carry students to collect marine biology specimens from Fishers Island Sound.[1]References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.mysticseaport.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.viewpage&page_id=B3F33967-D54B-E90C-34ED6316B318FFAB|title=Florence - Dragger|publisher=Mystic Seaport|accessdate=2008-11-15}}
