The Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain will be just a few hours away later this month.
The two ships – both of which will participate in this year’s Tall Ships Tacoma event – will be in Rainier, Ore., and St. Helens, Ore., on May 20 and 21. Each will be open for tours from 4-5 p.m.
They’ll follow that with a trip to Vancouver, Wash., which lasts until May 28.
“While in Rainier and St. Helens,” a press release said, “the crews of both ships will welcome students from the communities of Redmond, Vernonia, and Kelso, Wash. for educational programs. The students will learn how to raise a sail, sing a sea shanty, and hear stories of maritime life in the 18th century.”
