Festival of the Sea
This Saturday, the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park will put on a fun-filled festival in order to applaud the National Historical Park’s centennial as well as the recent restoration of the C.A. Thayer, a Schooner first launched in 1895. The day kicks off at 9:30am and runs until 5:00pm, and at 11:30am Brianna Thayer Mullins, an ancestor of the individual for whom the ship was named, and several relatives of J.E. Shields, the C.A. Thayer’s last captain, will re-dedicate the vessel during a special ceremony during which the sails will be raised and the ship renamed.
