sailing ships

July 13, 2019 by judeknight

Stormy seas in a tall ship

What was it like, on a sailing ship that relied on human strength and skill to face the stormy oceans? No safety harnesses. No labour saving devices. In this video, sailors from an historic ship that sailed from England to Australia as late as the early 20th century look back 40 years to comment on the experience.
