The magnificent youth training Tall Ship Stavros Niarchos will also be in attendance, stationed on the Cruise Passenger Terminal where she will be offering day cruises for just £99, allowing intrepid visitors to experience a taste of life before the mast - hauling ropes and setting sail for a ten-hour round trip in the Irish Sea. The America's Cup veteran Sceptre, built in 1958, will be one of the nation's much loved yachts attending. Believed to be the only UK America’s Cup Challenger still within British waters, she will occupy a prime position in the Albert Dock. Spirit of Fairbridge, yet another Tall Ship youth training vessel, normally based on the Clyde, will be sailing in to the Boat Show on the 4th of May and making a grand entrance into the Canning Half-Tide in front of thousands of Boat Show visitors and spectators, after which she will remain until the show closes on May 8th.
