"Tours Aloft" Let You Climb the Rigging



One of the thrills of watching the crew manage the Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain is their fearless climbing of the ships' rigging. It's a little bit like scaling a cliff, only the cliff is pitching, rolling, and yawing! And the view from the top is just as pleasing.

We're now offering all our guests the chance to try their hand at climbing the rigging with our new "Tours Aloft" activity at each port. A trained crewperson will strap you into a safety harness hooked up to fixed belay system. Then you climb the ratlines as high as you feel comfortable, as much as 70 feet off the water. You can do this at the dock or during a Battle Sail or Adventure Sail. We ask for a $20 donation.

Right now, we're in San Diego, and we'll be moving next to Oxnard. One of these might be your opportunity to enjoy this thrill!
