About the event
The story of North Carolina is closely interwoven with the maritime world. Throughout prehistory, American Indian tribes utilized dugout canoes to maintain lines of communication, trade, and relied on the marine environment. Ships of exploration and colonial craft of every description plied coastal, sound, and riverine waters. Vessels of piracy, warfare, and commerce led to legendary shipwrecks, heroic rescues, and enduring maritime mysteries. Over time, maritime industries flourished adjacent to and within the resource rich waters of the Tar Heel State. All this combines to form an incredibly profound maritime heritage, the legacy of which grows with every new discovery. As the maritime research community grows, so does our collective understanding of our maritime past and how it impacts our future. This legacy can be found in historical documents that are preserved by various institutions, family histories or genealogy, in coastal and riverine towns, the landscape of along our coast and inland waterways, or beneath the waves and waters across the Graveyard of the Atlantic. It can also be found in, and formed by, the individuals that seek to study and preserve it.
