🌊✨ Tall Ship Spotlight: BAP Unión ✨🌊
Meet the BAP Unión—the pride of the Peruvian Navy and one of the largest tall ships in the world! 🇵🇪 This four-masted barque stretches an incredible 379 feet in length.

We hope to see her in New York Harbor for Sail4th250 in 2026! 🚢🎆

Throwback Thursday: America’s Bicentennial
July 4, 1976 marked 200 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and New York Harbor celebrated in grand style. Over 200 vessels from around the world, including more than 40 tall ships, sailed in the Parade of Sail.

⛵ Tall Ship Spotlight: CISNE BRANCO 🇧🇷
Say hello to the Cisne Branco — or “White Swan” — the pride of the Brazilian Navy! 🦢 This stunning full-rigged ship was launched in 1999 and serves as a floating ambassador of peace, tradition, and Brazilian maritime heritage.✨

Ship Spotlight: INS Sudarshini. Say hello to the “beautiful lady” of the Indian Navy! This 54 m, three-masted barque was built in Goa and commissioned in 2012, following the design of her sister ship INS Tarangini. With 20 sails, 7.5 km of rope, & room for 30 cadets plus crew.

🇺🇸 Happy July 4!

We're celebrating today and looking ahead to @sail4th in 2026, when America’s 250th birthday brings fireworks and a harbor full of ships to the Hudson River! 🎆

They didn’t have fireworks hundreds of feet below the surface, but they did have dessert! 🎂 Here’s a photo of Growler cook Duane Heatwole decorating a flag cake aboard the submarine as part of the festivities at sea.
