"L. A. DUNTON" is one of two remaining fishing schooners build at the A.D. Story Shipyard in Essex, Massachusetts.

"Dunton" was modeled after a ship designed by Thomas J. McManus and was among the last large, purely sail-powered fishing vessels built. She was later equipped with an engine and had been adapted for use primarily as a motor vessel before being acquired by the Mystic Seaport Museum in 1963. An initial restoration in 1963-65 returned the rig and stern to their original configuration, while subsequent restorations between 1974 and 1985 returned her to a more fully authentic appearance.cite web|url=PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Text/93001612.pdf "L.
