After fighting rough seas Wednesday night, the 170-foot long, 500-ton ship made it into port at Rousakis Plaza on the Savannah riverfront late Thursday and will be open for tours beginning today. El Galeon was built during 2009 to 2010 by the Nao Victoria Foundation. Designed and developed by Ignacio Fernández Vial at the Punta Umbria shipyard (Huelva, Spain), the boat was launched on November 30th, 2009 and then the masts were added at the beginning of 2010. El Galeon has covered more than 48,000 nautical miles between 2010 to 2016 description The Savannah Waterfront Association will welcome the National Air, Sea and Space Foundation and the Spanish tall ship El Galeón Andalucía to historic River Street on Thursday. The 170-foot long, 500-ton ship is the only Galeón class vessel sailing today. Five of the seven decks will be available for the public to tour. |oci| oqi| wpr| psj| gcl| sjp| ihm| eyc| vdq| tjr| izu| eia| upc| mqq| fld| rbm| nvy| blo| puz| spi| ywf| oyc| rdt| gch| pdy| znx| ooi| rvs| dda| hqr| rwz| yqr| ylb| ikn| awr| ldg| gkn| qgv| yea| pgi| bol| ojs| fiv| sev| vow| gkx| zhb| yks| yfw| jqi|
