Tall Ship Windy

The WINDY’s have been a dream of Capt. Bob Marthai for many years. He had hoped to sail out of historic Charleston S. C. where he had operated his three masted schooner PRIDE for several years, but had  been unable to find local dock-age for a ship of the size of WINDY. At a meeting of the American Sail Training Association, he was invited  to consider Chicago as an alternative location. After a year of negotiations with the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, he  began tours on the Windy for Chicago in 2001.

General Info

The WINDY is a 150 foot traditional four masted gaff topsail  schooner/Tall Ship.  Built of modern materials, but like the old trading schooners and sail training ships, the  WINDY has all the character and charm of the great days of sail. She is silently pushed by the winds once her sails are set and engine turned off. The WINDY fully meets all appropriate United States Coast Guard regulations.
