The historic schooner Pioneer has been on the water since 1885 and this boat is about to see another moment in history. 
Pioneer is part of the flotilla of ships that will soon gather here in New York Harbor. 
>> How many sails does it have? 
>> Pioneer has five, four that we routinely set. 
>> Captain Jonathan Boulware is president of the South Street Seaport Museum that maintains the Pioneer and is helping organize the Sail Forth events. 
A fleet of US Navy and Coast Guard vessels is on the way to New York for days of parades along with historic tall ships from more than 20 nations. 
>> New York is a global city. America arose through the migration of many, many types of people and these events allow us to touch again to our international brothers and sisters. 
>> Portugal's massive ship is already in port. The masts are a reminder of how the seas link the globe and tie us to history. 
>> George Washington called the Hudson River the key of America as the Continental Army fought in these waters during the Revolutionary War and later this was the gateway for more than 12 million immigrants arriving to the US through Ellis Island. 
>> For the Bicentennial in 1976, a similar flotilla drew huge crowds around New York Harbor. 50 years later, organizers promise an even bigger spectacle. 
>> It is an enormous undertaking and we're going to bring it all together but looking forward to seeing people on the 4th of July. 
>> A celebration at sea as American history sails on. Bradley Blackburn, CBS News, New York. 
>> Woo! God bless America! 
>> People packed Alice Austen Park for a prime viewing spot. Everyone wearing their red, white, and blue. Watching with pride as the ships sailed under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. 
>> If I can live another 50 years, I'll see the 300th anniversary. 
I remember in 1976, I was 10 years old and I knew how it was on the harbor. I'm sure it's going to be something spectacular. 
Once in a lifetime. 
>> This is a way of people in Staten Island coming out to say we love this country. 
God bless America.

We were in awe, too. 
>> Wow. 
>> The soundtrack to the morning >> [music] 
>> this Marine Corps band playing jazz. 
>> It's been amazing seeing just not the not just the show of force, but all the people out here to enjoy it. It's been a wonderful time. 
>> Despite the extreme heat, so many people are out here enjoying the parade of tall ships. 
>> We came prepared, brought the ice, brought the towels. 
>> It was a can't miss morning for everyone. 
>> Just celebrating the greatest country on Earth. 
And as he said, we aren't perfect, but so what? We are the greatest country ever. 
>> This US Air Force veteran put it best. 
>> What has been your favorite part would you say so far?
