Is that the same Peking as the tall ship at the South Street Seaport?

Yes

Hmm. I wonder if South Street Seaport shows a copy of the movie. Anyone
know?

I doubt it, seems Irving was a big fan of the Mystic Seaport Museam,
they own the rights. And they make it quite clear it's not to be shown
in group setting,

Umm... not exactly, Joe. Almost all video tapes sold or rented to individuals
are not licensed to be shown for anything other than private viewing. That does
not mean the video is not available with different rights. I can buy a James
Bond movie on DVD, or rent it from Blockbuster, but it does not have a license
for me to show it, for example, on the TV in a public bar, even if I don't
charge admission.

Thanks for clearing that up Charlie...Buy it, and show it to your
sailing friends.
It's worth the money. IMO the film is a national treasure.
