Mexican Navy Tall Ship Cuauhtémoc Visits Melbourne 2024

The tall ship Cuauhtémoc of the Mexican Navy just visited Melbourne. It was open to the public and it was a majestic, wonderful sight. The crew were amazing as they braved the wind to stand along the masts as the ship left port. I captured it while it was in port at Station Pier in Melbourne (Australia) and then as it was departing. Thanks to Jupiter Bautista of Tempus Quartet (Mexico) for allowing me to use their version of a famous Mexican song, La Sandunga. I hope you like this video and thanks for watching, Brett - Gizmo Drones
