About This Category
Tall ships (ie largely wooden boats with sails and rigging!) and associated material. This collection exists largely thanks to Bruno (BG), since I remain unable to tell a sloop from a tug.
See also Recreation.
You might like to visit: Pablo Avanzini's Tall Ships Blog, Gauthier Marines of St Malo, Max's web site (professional tall ship photography), and Traditional Boats and Tall Ships magazine.
Bruno also recommends some links for people who want to go sailing:
(AKA "vieux gréements" or "grands voiliers" in French, and "tallship" or "tallships" in English.)
- clipper = Mid-19th century sharp-bowed tall-masted sailing vessel built for maximum speed, and relatively small with a large sail area, especially suited to low-volume and high-profit goods including tea (thus "tea clipper") and spices.
