Regina M. is a Carry Away Sloop located at Mystic Seaport in Mystic, Connecticut, United States. Regina M. was built in 1900 in Passamaquoddy Bay and was used to collect herring from fish weirs and transport them to canneries on shore. Mystic Seaport acquired the vessel in 1940 to add to their collection of watercraft. In 1992 Regina M. was restored to the way she looked in 1909.[1]
