BALTIMORE (WJZ) — An Argentine Navy tall ship is visiting Baltimore this weekend and offering Marylanders the chance to step aboard for free deck tours.

“It’s a very exciting day for Baltimore, we have our first tall ship in the Inner Harbor this year,” said Nan Nawrocki, president of Sail Baltimore, a nonprofit group that recruited the ship, the ARA Libertad.

The ship will be closed to the public on Saturday for Argentine Independence Day celebrations.

“The magnificent tall ships that sail around the world, it’s very unique for us to get them in Baltimore. We’re very lucky in that way and it’s a big competition between all the cities to have the ships here,” said Nawrocki.

Tall ships are large, traditionally rigged sailing vessels.
