Thanks to all. I didn't realize it isn't a yearly affair.

The full list of ports in Canada can be found at http://www.rdv2017.com/en/participating-cities/

The only port remaining outside of Canada is Le Havre, France after the final race.

The Event in Hamilton is this weekend with Parade of sail Friday afternoon and the ships open for tours on Saturday only.

You can also track the fleet at https://www.sailonboard.com/yb-satellite-tracking/. The great lakes ships will get their transponders in Hamilton.

Sounds right, Garbear. They were in Green Bay in 2016 and don't return until 2019.

It "dawned" on me after I made this post we were talking about two different Tall Ships events. When I'm tired I should never post and at 1:43 I shouldn't wake up and think about it and post again.

2017 Tall Ships Schedule

Unread post by Bookworm »

Trying to plan ahead, I'm having no luck in finding the overall schedule for the 2017 Tall Ships Event.
I did come across a list showing the following Great Lakes Flotilla participants at: http://www.tallshipsraces.com/Vessels/R ... esults.asp

They include:
ALEXANDER VON HUMBOLDT II (Germany)
APPLEDORE V (USA)
BLACK JACK (Canada)
DENIS SULLIVAN (USA)
EMPIRE SANDY (Canada)
FAIR JEANNE (Canada)
PATHFINDER (Canada)
PLAYFAIR (Canada)
ST LAWRENCE II (Canada)
WYLDE SWAN (the Netherlands)

Further searching found:
Fairport Harbor, OH - Fri, Jul. 07, 2017 to Sun, Jul. 09, 2017
but after that, most of the links were outdated, from 2013-2016.
Maybe someone out there has more up-dated information.
