Tall Ship Lady Washington in Astoria OR June 7-9 2017

Washington sails into the Port of Astoria June 7, 2017, where she will drop anchor at the Maritime Museum until the morning of June 10, 2017. You might recognize her from roles in such movies as the 2003 Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

Two-masted Tall Ship Lady Washington with white sails under sail at sea by Bob HabisonThe State of Washington’s official tall ship, she is a full size replica of the original Lady Washington. That Lady sailed around Cape Horn, was the first U.S. ship to visit Honolulu, Hong Kong and Japan, and helped inaugurate America’s Pan-Pacific trade in the late 18th century.

Board the ship and you travel back in time more than a century before Astoria was founded to find out what life was like aboard a sea-going trading vessel. The Vessel Tour lets you explore the ship and visit with the crew while they are docked. Evening Sails let you experience the Lady Washington ship under sail, where you’ll learn about its handling, sea shanties, and have the chance of watching a sunset on shipboard.
