TALL SHIPS CHALLENGE® is an annual series organised by Tall Ships America to promote the sail training experience, foster international cultural exchange and keep alive the rich maritime heritage represented by the tall ships community.
In between visits to a number of maritime festivals the tall ships take part in races, crewed by young people who may never have sailed before, running educational programmes that help help them to develop both personally and professionally.
The 2018 series will see a TALL SHIPS CHALLENGE® fleet visit ports on the Gulf Coast for the first time in its history with the events in Galveston, TX, New Orleans, LA, Pensacola, FL before the ships head out to the Atlantic Coast for Sail Philadelphia 2018.
