Tall Ships!

2008.05.11
The Lady Washington, on the left, and the Hawaiian Chieftain (right) start to head back into the bay.

Note the people up in the sails.










The Hawaiian Chieftain heads in, with Yaquina Bay Lighthouse in the background.

Sure looks different than the day before.

Click to enlarge. If you look closely (and know where to look), you can see two lighthouses in the picture -- at the extreme right and left. Yaquina Head Lighthouse is on the left; Yaquina Bay Lighthouse on the right.

A memorial on the south jetty. Drowning? Suicide? Commercial fishing death? I don't know.

Well, the weather cooperated today and unlike yesterday, I got the pictures of the tall ships as they came back into the bay after a tour.

The Lady Washington (which played the "HMS Interceptor" on the original Pirates of the Caribbean movie) and the Hawaiian Chieftain have made their annual visit to Yaquina Bay.

Hi-Res versions can be found here, if you're interested.
