Sea Chantey On Board

Experience how the sailors lift their spirits from a boring and back-breaking job in the ship by chanteying which also serves to help them coordinate and required sailors to work together in rhythm on-board the early ocean-going cargo ships C. A. Thayer and the actual Balclutha.

During the first Saturday of every month, sea music enthusiasts gather and sing-along sea chantey and sailor songs aboard a historic ship at San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park from 8pm to Midnight.

This is a free event luring around 200 people monthly requiring reservations, warm clothing and your own mug for hot cider.
