Classic ships at Sea Fair Festival

Jun 18 2008 by Steffan Rhys, Western Mail

ALMOST 200 ships and boats, some of which date from the 19th Century, will descend on the West Wales coast today as the Sea Fair Festival is launched at Milford Haven.

The second festival of its kind will see classic tall ships and naval vessels gathering off the coast for an event which its organisers hope will bring alive the maritime heritage of the Haven waterway. Four shipping fleets will meet at Milford Docks, then sail separate courses each day for a week.
