At full sail and with cannons firing, a long anticipated parade of tall ships sailed gracefully into Duluth Harbor this afternoon as thousands eagerly watched. According to the local police, it is estimated that 75,000 to 100,000 people were in the Canal Park area for the ships’ arrival. First the HMS Bounty and Roald Amundsen arrived. They were followed by Barque Europa, Roseway and U.S. Brig Niagara, then the Pride of Baltimore II and the smallest ships, last but not least, Zeeto and Coaster II. The ships will be open for tours through Sunday.
