We were invited aboard the Pegasus which was assigned to escort the Bill of Rights into San Diego Harbor.The Pegasus is a charter yacht based at Chula Vista Marina. We gathered aboard at 8am and motored out to Point Loma. How exciting when 16 ships cleared the point and with full sail proceeded into San Diego Bay! All Tall Ships and their escorts paraded into San Diego Bay, circling past the Coronado Bay Bridge and eventually docking at the Maritime Museum on Harbor Drive.
The rest of the Labor Day weekend involved tall ship tours, tall ship sailing excursions, pirates, food, art, and music. Tall Ships participating in War Games with cannon fire on the high seas (or what looked like San Diego Bay). At the end of the weekend the tall ships sailed out of San Diego and continued up the coast of California for another weekend of revelry in Long Beach.
