Note for 2012 – We’ve Moved!
Thanks to a community effort involving the City of Traverse City, Discovery Center Great Lakes, Elmwood Township and Traverse City Light and Power, Traverse Tall Ship has a new home! We are excited and proud to be located at the Discovery Center Great Lakes and we’re looking forward to a fantastic season to celebrate our 25th year of sailing on Grand Traverse Bay. Our new office is just north of our old location on M-22, right across the road from what long-time residents will know as the “Coal Dock”. This dock has served as home for the Maritime Heritage Alliance’s fleet for some time, so we’ll be in good company at our new berth.
