Get some pictures. There's a couple of schooners there that I've crewed on at times. Wish I was there now. Here's a pic from one of them, enjoy...Chief <br />

They sure are DJ<br />And Chief what is the name of the boat you posted a pic of?<br /><br />You actually got to crew on some of them?? That had to be a blast. A friend of mine is paying to crew on one of them next week. I'll see him down there Sunday and find out which one.

Link, did you say he's paying them? To tell you the truth, I volunteered. It's well worth just going out to sea on a tall ship, even if only for only a couple of hours. Chief

Hey Chief<br />Yup paying to work LOL<br />Some of the ships when they leave here for their next port will take on passengers (for a fee) and you become part of the crew..<br />When the Endeavour (Captain Cook) was here in Gig Harbor a few years ago a friend signed on (several hundred dollars) and sailed as a crew member up to BC where we picked him up a month or so later. He had a great time
