John Day, a shipwright at the H.B. DuPont Preservation Shipyard at Mystic Seaport in Stonington, uses a chisel to carve a notch in a "hanging knee" structural support in the hold of the whaleship Charles W. Morgan Thursday, October 11, 2012. The Morgan is less than a year away from the planned launch after a complete restoration of the ship to sailing condition. Built in New Bedford in 1841, the Morgan is the last wooden whaleship surviving in the world and is a National Historic Landmark.
