Welcome aboard! GHF is able to offer a limited number of ELISSA day sail spots on board as a sail training student, experiencing what life was like as a 19th-century sailor. The program includes both hands-on and lecture learning, focusing on setting sails and maneuvering the 146-year-old ship through the Gulf of Mexico. Come with us on this journey through the past and experience your own piece of history onboard the Official Tall Ship of Texas!
The event takes place April 5-19, 2024 at Galveston Historic Seaport.
