Я помню этот корабль. Я видел его в Ялте или в Ростове-на-Дону, когда мне было лет 7 или 8. Отец объяснил мне, что это барк - 4 прямых мачты. Это почти все, что я знаю о парусном флоте. Где-то остался снимок, надо поискать.

Парусник чудесный ! Жаль что не увидел его при всех парусах...

Is this ship really more than 200 years old already? And still in such great condition. How very many people must have sailed on her. Wonderful.

Beautiful :) Thanx for posting it. I was on this awesome ship yesterday in Halifax. It was the only one I was most interested in seeing at the Tall Ships. I was very satisfied.

when it was in Boston on July 11 09 one of its masts was broken in half and removed for repairs so I didn't see all 4...
