BUCKSPORT The day after the Nao Santa Maria, a replica of one of Christopher Columbus’ ships, sailed into town, the Maine Bicentennial Commission issued a statement distancing itself from the ship’s visit. The vessel’s arrival was organized by the Penobscot Marine Heritage Association as part of the 4-Port Loop.
The ship was originally scheduled to continue on to Bangor next week.
“While the ship’s visit is not hosted by Maine200 and the bicentennial commission is not involved in the planning for this event, we regret that this ship was chosen for an event that is associated with Maine’s bicentennial, as the mistreatment of Native Americans is a devastating part of Maine’s history,” said Maine200 Chairman Sen. Bill Diamond in a July 9 statement. “We are encouraging the event organizers to cancel the participation of the ship as part of their bicentennial celebration.”
