I have to admit I’m a little embarrassed that we’re posting this so late since it started yesterday and I’m such a huge fan of tall ships. So I don’t know if you’ve been down by the bay the past few days but we’ve had a few visitors on the waterfront and the reason is Sail San Francisco! 2005. We’re being over-run by beautiful sailing ships thanks to the Pacific Rim Foundation. There are tours and more going on for the rest of the weekend. I’ll definitely be heading down tomorrow to check out these tall masted beauties. I pass 2 of them on the way to the office and they are amazing looking ships. Now the only issue is do I go with Pirates or Zombies? Next thing I know there will be a Ninja convention hitting town and I’m really screwed!

Be sure to check out the Ship Battles on Saturday and Sunday from 1:00pm – 4:00pm & 5:00pm -8:00pm. Sounds damn sweet. If anyone has pics from the past 2 days drop us a link in the comments.

From their website:

This summer, International and domestic tall ships and training ship will return to San Francisco Bay, marking the beginning of Sail San Francisco! 2005, a five day tall ship and multicultural festival to take place July 28 – August 1,2005. Historic-classic ships, merchant marine and navy vessels from the United States and abroad will grace the Bay and dock along the waterfront.
