Members and friends of the Deltaville Maritime Museum celebrated the “Laying of the Keel” last Saturday at the museum in Deltaville. Above, the keel is carried on the shoulders of volunteers to start the construction of a replica of the “Explorer,” a 30-foot sailing barge used by Captain John Smith to explore the Chesapeake Bay region.
