Tacoma's Tall Ship: The Extraordinary Journey of the Odyssey (Transportation) by Emily Elizabeth Molina

Tacoma's Tall Ship: The Extraordinary Journey of the Odyssey (Transportation) by Emily Elizabeth Molina

From trips to the Galapagos Islands to training Sea Scouts.

 

In 1978 the Odyssey, a 90-foot wooden yawl, arrived in Tacoma to serve as a training vessel and beloved landmark, standing tall in the harbor. Launched in 1938 off Nevins Boatyard in City Island, New York, the Odyssey spent four years traveling the world under the ownership of Barklie Henry. The ship hosted the Vanderbilt family and famous names like Ernest Hemingway before being donated to the cause during World War II. One name change later, she began service as a top-secret research vessel for the U.S. Navy, working in places like San Diego and Woods Hole until finding a home in Tacoma.
