The Baylander is a former Army Yard Freight Utility Craft. Originally named SKILAK (YFU-79), the 134-foot craft was used during the Vietnam War to transport equipment and supplies.  It later served as a deck-landing trainer patrolling the calm waters of Santa Rosa Bay and offered aspiring aviators their first taste of a landing surface that wasn’t stationary.

The Baylander at the invitation of DOCKNYC, will be moored at West Harlem Piers through early October. More community events are being planned for residents to enjoy.

The collective Friskin’ The Whiskers will showcase the following films free for visitors on the Baylander starting at 3pm with music from DJ Dre Love.
