A three-week voyage, timed to align with Anchorage's centennial celebration, would take the Nadezhda from its base in Vladivostok, in Russia's Far East, to Cook Inlet. Mayor Dan Sullivan has sent an official letter of invitation; the state maritime university that owns the ship responded with its own letter of interest.

"The Nadezhda's call at Anchorage would serve good for enhancing cultural, commercial, and academic ties between citizens of the two nations -- the United States of America and the Russian Federation," wrote Sergei Ogai, the university's rector.
