The 1877 Tall Ship ELISSA, the Official Tall Ship of Texas and a National Historic Landmark, has departed Galveston to join Sail250, a global tall ship gathering marking America's 250th anniversary. Fresh from maintenance and restoration, ELISSA is undertaking her longest voyage in decades with stops at several East Coast cities, culminating in leading a flotilla into New York Harbor on July 4.

ELISSA, one of the few active 19th-century merchant ships, continues to preserve and share Galveston's maritime and immigration heritage with contemporary audiences.
