Educational Tall Ship for San Francisco Information

Our Mission The mission of Educational Tall Ship is to construct a historic and sustainable wooden tall ship for the San Francisco Bay Area. The project will provide on-the-water and shore-based experiential education for students of all ages, both during construction and after the ship's completion. Programs will focus on marine ecology, sustainability, teamwork, leadership and the rich maritime history of the Bay Area. Building a Ship The Educational Tall Ship project is nearing the construction phase. Our vessel will be the first wooden tall ship built in the Bay Area in almost 100 years and is the largest ship of this kind to incorporate sustainable building practices. You can participate in the construction, through our programs and events. Building a Community The Educational Tall Ship project aims to serve the San Francisco Bay area by actively engaging with members of the community and partner organizations. During the construction we will utilize community volunteers as well as youth education programs making our vessel truly a community effort. We welcome your support. Join Us!
