When we stopped by the waterfront park commemorating the landing of Spanish explorer Tristan de Luna in 1559, we noticed a tall sailing ship lying at anchor in the bay.
This turned out to be the Peacemaker, based out of Savannah, and in port through the middle of March. Wikipedia has a pretty complete story of the ship and its origins in Brazil. There is a YouTube video of the ship at sea, too.
The wheelhouse looks very comfortable. Lots of Mahogany.
And the captain seemed very pleased to be with the ship.
