One of a kind tall ship visits city as part of UK tour

A huge wooden ship docked in Liverpool this week as part of a tour of the UK.

Tall Ship Tenacious arrived in Liverpool earlier this week after making a number of stops across England and Wales. The boat arrived in Portsmouth on June 2 before heading to Cardiff on June 11. The boat then made its way to Liverpool, arriving on June 25.

The Tenacious is a training ship for young people, built in 2000 and one of only two tall ships in the world with wheelchair lifts. At 213ft in length, the three-masted barque is operated by Sail Training International, which organises races, regattas and expeditions for people aged under the age of 26.
