The Tall Ships Atlantic Challenge '09 starts on Sunday, May 3rd in Vigo, Spain. The fleet will head south to Tenerife and then west to Bermuda for the country's 400th birthday celebration.
The Spirit of Bermuda is the only sail training vessel on this side of the pond. Sail training vessels from many other nations including Russia, France and Great Britain will be racing her to Bermuda and other vessels from North and South America will converge on Hamilton in the beginning of June to join the Tall Ships Festival and the country's Anniversary celebrations.
