Californian, official tall ship of the State of California, set out today from the Maritime Museum of San Diego. Passengers aboard the schooner, a replica of a Gold Rush era revenue cutter, began another four hour Sunday sailing adventure!
I stood on the museum’s barge out on San Diego Bay as Californian’s volunteer crew prepared the tall ship to get underway. Once well out on the water, the sails would be employed, so necessary actions were performed beforehand.
At noon, when all was ready, lines were cast off and the ship moved away from the dock by using its motor.
I don’t pretend to understand the details of sailing a traditionally rigged tall ship, but I do enjoy watching the action!
