The traditional tall ship Matthew Turner will visit Richmond’s Marina Bay harbor on Sunday, May 29, 2026, offering free public tours. - The 132-foot brigantine is modeled after a historic 19th-century vessel built by Matthew Turner.
- Visitors can board from 10 a.m. to learn about nautical history, marine science, and seamanship from crew members.
- The ship is operated by Call of the Sea, a nonprofit that educates 5,000 students annually through day trips, overnight expeditions, and summer camps. - The Matthew Turner is usually based in Sausalito and is one of two tall ships in the organization’s fleet.
This event aims to increase visibility for the nonprofit and its ocean education mission.
