Sailing Tall Ships

Schooners are wonders to behold.  These are some images from a 2003 trip aboard The Highlander Sea.  A 1929 Schooner, built in the style of the Grand Banks Fishing Schooners.  More than 150 long overall, wooden construction, she is a seagoing marvel.  The comraderie that comes from sailing aboard her is a lasting memory.

The crew furls the jib.  The crewman in the front with no hat is Christopher Sutton, a good friend and tall ship captain.
