List of U.S. National Historic Landmark ships, shipwrecks, and shipyards

This is a perhaps complete list of the 133 National Historic Landmarks (NHLs) in the United States that are ships, shipwrecks, or shipyards. [The United States Naval Academy, in Maryland, is a ship-related institution that is also an NHL, but is not included in the count of 133. The list of 133 is based on review of the "National Historic Landmarks Survey: List of National Historic Landmarks by State" document and searching on related National Park Service websites.]

More than five percent of the 2,442 or so NHLs are ships, shipwrecks, or shipyards.

The NHL ships, shipwrecks, and shipyards are distributed across 31 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S.-associated state of Micronesia. Nineteen states have no ships among their NHLs.
