#tallship – American Tall Ship SSV Corwith Cramer is on it's way to Cork from the East Coast of the United States and is due to arrive off Cork Harbour on June 28th.

The school ship will spend a week on the river Lee, the first time the ship has come to Europe.

The Sea Education Association (SEA) that operates the ship is an 'internationally recognised leader in undergraduate ocean education', according to its website. For more than 40 years and over one million nautical miles sailed, the association has educated students about the world's oceans through a fully accredited study abroad programme, SEA Semester.
