Traditional "pasara" boats in the harbor of Šilo. Two old vessels sailing in different directions. Although they seem to diverge, they actually form the very same, shared story of bygone days and generations of fishermen who shaped this coast. A tradition that never fades, captured in a timeless black and white frame.
Two ways to love tall ships at SAIL 2025: wide shots of bowsprits and figureheads catching golden light, and tight details: rope coils, blocks, anchors, and the Christian Radich tender. Craft, color, and history on the IJ.

America has been a maritime nation since before it was a nation. This heritage is a legacy of thousands of years of settlement, exploration, immigration, harvesting the bounty of the seas and creating coastal communities and maritime traditions. Through the study, protection and promotion of this diverse legacy, sanctuaries help Americans learn more about our past.

The Battle of Hampton Roads from March 8-9, 1862 was the first engagement of ironclad warships during the Civil War.
On this day in history, the USS Monitor arrived in Hampton Roads with orders to protect the Minnesots, which had run aground during an earlier confrontation with the CSS Virginia. Though the battle ultimately ended in a draw, the clash between these two ironclads would go down as one of the most consequential battles in naval history.
