Conch Republic Navy
Share
The Conch Republic Navy was created when the Schooner WESTERN UNION attacked the US Coast Guard Cutter DILIGENCE in Key West Harbor on April 23rd, 1982.
Today the Conch Republic boasts the world’s last all privateer, mainly sail propelled navy. In addition to the Flagships WOLF and WESTERN UNION, other vessels which have served under the Conch Republic battle flag include the schooners APPLEDORE, LIBERTY, LIBERTY CLIPPER, REEF CHIEF, ISLAND BELLE, HINDU, and DRUMMER as well as the sloops HIGH TIDE, PUFFIN, and EN CAVALE, the ketch CONCH WEST and the ex Navy PT 728.
