Historical forebearers: During the War of 1812, privateers used such vessels to raid English ships. Interesting tidbit: The ship was commissioned in 1988 as a sailing memorial to the Pride of Baltimore, which sank in a storm off Puerto Rico in 1986 with the loss of its captain and three crew members. Appledore V Type of vessel: Schooner Length: 65 feet (sparred); 58 feet (LOD) Beam: 14 feet Draft: 8 feet, 6 inches Number of masts: 2 Height of tallest mast: 63 feet, 6 inches Year launched: 1992 Homeport: Bay City, Mich. / Florida Keys History: The Appledore V is owned and operated by BaySail of Bay City, Mich., which aims to “foster environmental stewardship of the ... Great Lakes ecosystem and to provide personal development opportunities for learners of all ages through shipboard and land-based educational experiences.” Appledore V was launched in 1992 and purchased by BaySail in 2002, joining the 85-foot schooner Appledore IV. Appledore V returned to the Great Lakes this summer after four years in Florida. Mist of Avalon Type of vessel: Schooner Length: 100 feet (sparred); 85 feet (LOD) Beam: 20 feet Draft: 10 feet, 3 inches Number of masts: 2 Height of tallest mast: 63 feet, 1 inch Year launched: 1967/1997 Homeport: Toronto History: The Mist of Avalon was launched in 1967 as the M/V Liverpool Bay in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. It was used for commercial cod fishing in the North Atlantic for 20 years before being left abandoned at a pier in Halifax. In 1992, Capt. George Mainguy started converting the vessel to a 19th-century Grand Banks schooner, replacing the main engine, rebuilding the hull and building out the rigging. Renamed the "Mist of Avalon," it returned to the sea in 1997 and has since been featured in movies and at maritime festivals. El Galeon Andalucía Type of vessel: Galleon Length: 129 feet Beam: 33 feet Draft: 10 feet, 6 inches Number of masts: Three, plus a bowsprit mast Height of tallest mast: 121 feet Gross registered tonnage: 496 Year launched: 2009 Homeport: Sevilla, Spain Mission: The ship’s goal, according to its website, is “to spread the knowledge and experiences of the sailors and explorers from our ancestral past, and the offer the once-in-a-lifetime experience to peer into the hearts of legends past.” The Nao Victoria Foundation commissioned the ship, which was built in 2009-10. Historical forebearers: Spanish galleons of the 16th through 18th centuries that discovered and established trade routes linking Spain, the Americas and the Philippines. Galleons had more cargo capacity, defense capabilities and better maneuverability than previous ship designs. Interesting tidbit: The hull and decks of El Galeon Andalucía were built up in layers of fiberglass, after which the structure was lined with wood. Three years of research went into the project. US Brig Niagara Type of vessel: Brig Length: 198 feet (sparred), 116 feet (LOD) Beam: 32.5 feet Draft: 11 feet Number of masts: 2 Height of tallest mast: 118 feet Gross registered tonnage: 162 Year launched: 1988 Homeport: Erie, Pa.

Denis Sullivan, owner and captain of the Moonlight in 1874. Interesting tidbit: Wisconsin’s flagship, nearly 1 million volunteer hours went into its construction from 1991 to 2000.
