Tall Ships 2000 Adventure
Do you get emotional when you read John Masefield's line from Sea Fever...
"I must go down to the seas again" Do you yearn to sail the briny ocean
blue? If so, you can book your passage on a Tall Ship today for the adventure
of a lifetime! (Note: A local innkeeper has booked his on the Russian
ship, MIR and we have an exclusive with pics and more -- see 'Tall Ships
Adventure Exclusive' below!)
Tall Ship Millenium Challenge
The TSMC is looking for youthful adventurers from 18-25. The mandate of
this non-profit organization is to place 500 Canadian young people on
Tall Ships to train and race in Tall Ships 2000. Sponsors always welcome!
The Eye of the Wind
This heritage vessel is TSMC's A-Class tall ship entry and one of two
vessels manned by Canadian youth. She will sail the entire length of the
race and is the only Canadian vessel to do so.
Tall Ship VIP Reception
If you prefer to get your sea legs from a safe harbor and support the
Tall Ships while you do it, you can book your passage to the Tall Ships
VIP Reception. Includes an engraved commemorative invitation, foods from
around the world, the 'grand tour' of the 55,60 meter Bark Europa, and
the best view of the fireworks on the Halifax Harbour from her deck.
Boston Bound
If you're booking on as Boston crew, or following the ships to Halifax
on the landlubber route from the Bar Harbor ferry, here's what one of
Halifax's sister cities has lined up for Tall Ships 2000 week.
