Tall ships from around the world anchor in New Jersey ahead of parade
The fleet includes ships from 22 countries and the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Eagle, with public boarding available later this week.
- On Saturday, July 4, forty-three tall ships from 22 countries sailed the Hudson River to mark America's 250th birthday after anchoring in Sandy Hook Bay.
- New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill framed the fleet as an 'enduring symbol of friendship and cooperation,' while Sail4th organizers required five years of planning to secure international participation.
- Vessels range from 161 feet to over 350 feet, with the Coast Guard Cutter Eagle leading; HMS GLADAN captain Peter Jeppsson said, 'I think that 250 years is worth celebrating.'
- Spectators gathered along the Hudson River, with Karen Wolff calling it 'just a once-in-a-lifetime chance' and Mike Nugent saying, 'We were hoping they'd be moving. Very impressive.'
- Starting today, Sunday, visitors can board the ships through Tuesday at various points throughout the city, extending public engagement with the international fleet.
