About the Californian

Californian is a replica of the 1847 Revenue Cutter C.W. Lawrence, which patrolled the coast of California enforcing federal law during the gold rush. It is also the official tall ship of the state and popular on-the-water adventure attraction among locals and visitors to San Diego.
