| Lady
Washington / Hawaiian Chieftain |
Built in Aberdeen, Washington by the Grays Harbor Historical Seaport
Authority was launched on March 7, 1989. Lady Washington is a full-scale
reproduction of the original that in 1788 became the first American
vessel to visit the West Coast, Honolulu, Hong Kong, and Japan, pioneering
the trade between the newly independent United States of America
and the Orient. Our Lady Washington sails year round on the West
Coast of Northern America and occasionally beyond. Although our primary
focus is providing innovative hands-on maritime heritage programs
to schools and the general public, |

Both delivery skippers and private boat owners, who quickly realize that
their friends and family still have jobs and obligations, call us looking
for crew. We collect that information and pass it on to our members and
help them get aboard |
