Sea Trek 2001
Sea Trek 2001 was a privately-organized commemorative sea voyage in 2001, celebrating the 150th anniversary of the migration of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church or Mormon Church) from Europe to the United States during the 19th century. It followed the church's sesquicentennial reenactments of Mormon pioneer wagon trains 1997.
==Events==
The events for Sea Trek 2001 were in two stages. The first, called "The Gathering", was a tour of tall ships through different European sea ports over a seventeen-day period. Eight sailing ships were rented: the ''Statsraad Lehmkuhl'', ''Christian Radich'', and ''Sorlandet'' from Norway; the ''Europa'', ''Swan fan Makkum'', and ''Antigua'' from Denmark; the ''Mir'' from Russia; and the ''Mary-Anne'' from Germany.〔The ''Mary-Anne'' is confirmed as the German ship in this article: 〕 They departed from Esberg, Denmark on August 7, 2001 and stopped at ports in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Germany, Scotland, and England, where Mormon emigrants had departed in the nineteenth century.〔 Identical statues were donated to a number of port cities visited during the project. The unusual sight of tall ships at these sites drew crowds and publicity, with thousands paying to tour the historic ships. Around 1,700 boarders paid for passage between different ports and durations at sea.〔
The second stage, called "The Crossing", took passengers across the Atlantic Ocean, from Portsmouth to New York, at $160 per day for 39 days.〔 Three ships (''Statsraad Lehmkuhl'', ''Chirstian Radich'' and ''Europa'') sailed on to the Canary Islands, Bermuda then New York City. The final arrival on October 4 in New York Harbor was planned as a media event with a concert, fireworks, and exhibits, to generate publicity and souvenir sales. However, these were cancelled because of the September 11 attacks, which occurred while the ships were underway in the Atlantic Ocean.〔
