Team coverage of Tall Ships Tacoma 2008.

The pride of the state's tall ships fleet, the Aberdeen based Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain, are running into a little trouble on their tour of California ports.

According to a story in the Triplicate newspaper, the ships are due in Crescent City this week for the Tall Masted Ships Celebration, but the Lady has been held up in the Bay Area by weather and just got under way Sunday. The Chieftain has been in Sausalito undergoing mechanical repairs. Both ships missed their scheduled appearance in Eureka.

The Crescent City organizers are still confident that both ships will make it time for most of the festival.

To check on the progress of the ships, see the Web site for the Grays Harbor Historic Seaport.
