Scheel<br \/>1911-1993<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A resident of Rockport, Maine, Henry A. Scheel was one of America\u2019s most respected naval architects and yacht designers. His distinguished career produced more than 250 complete designs which have been utilized by 30 builders of sailboats and other craft in the United States and Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The Scheel Keel, a shallow draft, low gravity design introduced in 1974, has become a standard in the industry. During World War II, he worked on patrol and torpedo boat construction for the U.S. Navy and, later, helped to create the nuclear submarine, <em>Nautilus<\/em>. Mr. Scheel\u2019s range of talents also led to his design of jungle cruisers, submarines, and paddle-wheel excursion boats for Disney World.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, his love of the sea and ships led to enduring friendships with the Mystic Seaport Museum, the Penobscot Marine Museum, and, most especially, with Maine Maritime Academy. As an expression of his high regard for the Academy, he left funds to permanently endow scholarships for academically talented and deserving students.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div

In addition to housing classrooms and state-of-the-art teaching laboratories, the ABS Building provides critical infrastructure support to faculty and students conducting research.<\/p>\n<p>The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) awards scholarships to full-time undergraduate students in Maine Maritime Academy\u2019s MEO, MET, MSE (4 and 5-year tracks), PEO, or PET programs. Awardees have demonstrated academic excellence by maintaining a cumulative GOA of 3.0 or higher and an interest in the maritime and\/or energy business.
