Star of India Sails

The Star of India, the oldest iron hull sailing ship, turns 150 years old on 11/14/2013 so she is being let out to sail this weekend. We went up to the top of Point Loma to watch and take pictures. We had fun.

    Beautiful photos. David wondered if she was sailing on her sail, or had been refitted with a steam (now diesel) engine.
