OCEAN CITY – More tall ships and similar vessels will be sought to come to Ocean City in the future as a result of the significant success of the El Galeon. At the conclusion of Tuesday afternoon’s Recreation and Parks Commission meeting, Special Events Superintendent Frank Miller proposed to the commission the idea of Ocean City hosting other tall ships in the future and a concerted effort being made to lure them to town. Last month, Ocean City hosted El Galeon, which was berthed at the bayside boardwalk between 3rd and 4th streets. The tall ship is a replica of the 16th-century ships that Spanish explorers sailed on to discover much of the new world. With much fanfare, El Galeon arrived in Ocean City on Wednesday, Aug. 21, from where it was previously stationed in New York and made its departure Tuesday, Sept. 3. The Galeon's next stop was Puerto Rico. According to National Sea, Air & Space Foundation President Brian Lilley, there were between 14,000 and 15,000 people who visited the ship while it was in Ocean City, and at least 13,000 boarded the vessel for a tour. “The success of the Spanish Galeon here in Ocean City was added proof that this can work,” Miller said of other vessels coming to port at the same location. “The success of the vessel only enhanced the desire to continue to have other vessels here, such as tall ships or submarines, whatever it may be. There are plenty of vessels that are a good opportunity to bring here to town. That success not only showed is it an additional attraction for people that are here in town and local residents but it is also helps to make an Ocean City a tourist destination.” Miller has been in contact with the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) in what requirements would be necessary in accommodating other vessels when they come to port as well as the permit process. Before El Galeon arrived, the town prepared by installing cleats into the pier and two concrete pads to hold the ship in maximum current and a 50 mph wind load positioned east of the bulkhead. It was designed to take on the entire load of the ship instead of the bulkhead. The total cost to the town was about $3,000. Miller is researching the USCG Eagle as an example in the accommodations a tall ship seeks in choosing a port. The Eagle is one of three sail-training ships operated by the pre-World War II German navy. At the close of the war, the ship was taken as a war reparation by the U.S. and re-commissioned as the U.S. Coast Guard CutterEagle. The tall ship is far too large to port in Ocean City.
