Step into history on the Yonkers Pier! FREE tours of the tall ship, The Amistad, this Wednesday, 7/31
The replica schooner Amistad will be docking right here in Yonkers New York, in Esplanade Park (Recreation Pier).
Free dockside tours will be offered from 12pm-7pm. Learn the harrowing story of the mutiny of the Mende people on board. This is an opportunity not to be missed.
For more historical context feel free to visit us here at Philipse Manor Hall from 10-5.
Ship Fact: What makes a ship a ‘Schooner?’ The way it is rigged! Schooners are rigged fore-and-aft (inline with the beam, as opposed to a square rigged ship), on all of her two or more masts.
