We have a tall mast sailing ship here in Bellingham. I've watched her go out in the bay from the port and it's quite a site to behold. I can almost imagine what it must have felt like to be on the Kalmar Nyckel ship under all those sails!

I have to also say, I have only been on one boat (a large ferry boat) and really am not much of a sailor. I don't swim, lol! Anyway, it might be cool to experience it once........with a life vest of course! Take care!
