Since the late 1800s lightships had been used to guide other ships around harbor entrances and dangerous shallow sandbars.
The shallow waters there have the name " Frying Pan Shoals" - so the ship was renamed “The Frying Pan”. A crew of 15 men served aboard the ship for three months at a time followed by two months of shore leave. The lightship remained at its post until 1965 and then a new lighthouse was built on shore. Frying Pan Lighthouse was automated in 1976 and then deactivated in 2003. In 2010 the lighthouse was sold for $85,000

John Krevey, an electrical contractor and businessman from New York City bought the ship for $8,000. Krevey installed a truck diesel engine and started and started a coastal sea voyage to the Hudson River in 1983. By 1991, he had it docked temporarily at Pier 59 on the Hudson River at 18th Street.



Pier 66 is open 7 days a week from May 1 to October 1, and in October only when weather is 65 F (18 C) degrees or over.
