Despedida Tall Ship J.S. de Elcano!

There's always something going on in Newport Harbor!  Last weekend the third largest Tall Ship in the world and largest schooner in the world visited Newport.  We were able to get up close and personal with the J.S. de Elcano while she was docked at Naval Station Newport.  Check out these amazing shots of the 370 foot schooner.  On Tuesday, the ship left Newport for its next adventure. So for now we say, "Goodbye or Despedida J.S. de Elcano!"

This is just the first of many interesting boats to visit Newport this summer.  Stay tuned for all the latest happenings on the Newport waterfront!

Bienvenido a Newport Juan Sebastian de Elcano!

Another day another amazing ship sails into Newport!  The massive J.S. de Elcano is 370 feet long and is the third largest tall ship in the world.  She is named after Spanish explorer Juan Sebastián Elcano, captain of Ferdinand Magellan's last exploratory fleet. The Juan Sebastián de Elcano was built in 1927 in Cadiz, Spain and today she is used as a training vessel.

Come to Newport this weekend and check out this amazing tall ship!

Thanks to Captain Duncan for these great photos!
