Gazela? This one?Bit o' trivia- the "square" sails are called that NOT because of their shape (they aren't really square, after all, base is longer than top), but because they're square (ie, 90 degrees) to the axis of movement.
Separately- I wonder if anyone else has ever sailed on a tall ship? I spent a month on Gazela, out of Philidelphia. If so, maybe we could start a new thread on that. But where would that thread belong? Prob not in the "Parliament"...
or this one?
I'm interested in your story. Carry on Obadiah ...
Von der Woge, die sich bäumet, längs dem Belt am Ostseestrand; Bis zur Flut, die ruhlos schäumet, an der Düne flücht'gem Sand;
Gott ist stark auch in den Schwachen, wenn sie gläubig ihm vertrauen; Zage nimmer, und dein Nachen wird trotz Sturm den Hafen schaun!
