Ship Returning To Spain, Not Ocean City Needing Repairs

Although a month-long event is still in the works for the August arrival of the Andalucia in Ocean City, its sister ship – the Nao Victoria – will not be coming to the resort.

“It looks like the second ship is not going to be in Ocean City,” said Cathy Bassett, spokesperson for the National Air, Sea, and Space Foundation. “It’s going to have to go back to Spain for repairs.”

Earlier this year, the NASSF – the non-profit group run by OC Air Show promoter Bryan Lilley – had arranged to host two replica vessels from the golden age of sail in the resort this summer, following the successful visit of one ship last year.
