''Maryland Federalist'' is a replica ship built in 1987 and now located at BWI Airport near Concourse D. The ship is a replica of the miniature ship ''Federalist'' which was built in 1788. ==Original ''Federalist''== The merchants of Baltimore celebrated Maryland's ratification of the United States Constitution on April 28, 1788, by building a miniature ship called ''Federalist''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.msa.md.gov/msa/mdstatehouse/html/federalist.html )〕 The ship was designed by Joshua Barney, a native of Baltimore and commodore in the United States Navy. ''Federalist'' was the centerpiece of a parade in Baltimore before being sailed by Barney down the Chesapeake Bay and up the Potomac River to Mount Vernon to be presented as a gift to George Washington. According to Washington's diary, Barney arrived on June 8, 1788. ''Federalist'' sank in a "hurricane" on July 24. In April 2010, a partnership between the Mount Vernon Archaeology Department, the Lighthouse Archaeological Maritime Program, the Institute of Maritime History, the Maryland Historical Trust, and the Virginia Department of Historic Resources conducted an archaeological survey of the Potomac River near Mount Vernon. One of the project's goals was to locate the ''Federalist'' wreck. In October 2010, it was reported that the surveyors "... found sonar signals that may indicate that a boat of the ''Federalist''() size is present." Subsequent field work in 2013 did not find anything related to ''Federalist''.
