Public tour French Navy schooners docked in Annapolis
5/18/2012:
They departed the northwest coast of France two months ago - 26
crew members each aboard two historic French schooners headed to
North America. With relatively calm seas, a chef well-versed in
French cuisine and plenty of technological updates to the World
War II-era ships, the boats made an easy voyage to the U.S.
Naval Academy in Annapolis. The schooners made the journey as
part of the bicentennial of the War of 1812. The schooners will
remain moored at the Naval Academy through Tuesday. Once they
depart, they will travel to Canada with six Naval Academy
midshipmen onboard, as part of a summer training program.
