All good Gulnare, I've been on tall ships when I was a kid (even sat on end of bowsprit watching the sunset once) Awesome experience and would recommend to anyone that's given the chance

I guess you know about 'Notorious' a Portugese Caravel built by a couple in Port Fairy Vic . out of unused timber over ten years.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notorious_(ship)

I got the shock of my life when I saw her coming straight at me on the GC.
a few years back.

Likewise BB when I first saw her anchored in the Clarence coming into sight through the fog, I had to seriously consider what was going on. Nice folks by the way
