Ho! News today that Humboldt Bay will retain its current pirate-ish aesthetic. The tall ships Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain are extending their Eureka stay through Sunday — they were initially slated to leave today. This means additional chances to head down to the Bonnie Gool Dock for walk-on tours, evening sails and/or to watch the vessels faux blast it out during their “Battle Sail” exhibition. More details on the ships’ schedules here.
