R Tucker Thompson - Late Afternoon Sail

The R Tucker Thompson is a 19th century Tall Ship. She is a 28 metre (85 foot), gaff rigged, square tops'l schooner. Gaff rigged means that her mainsail has four sides; square tops'l refers to the two square topsails. This cruise allows participants to view secluded islands as the ship sails across the sheltered waters of the Bay, then enjoy a shared tasting platter as the sun starts to set. Cruise concludes at approximately 6.00pm, at Opua Wharf.
