Robert's Ramblings

I love how we have held on to the romance of tall sailing ships. A symbol so ancient in the travel of humanity for every reason imaginable.

No longer needed for exploration of uncharted lands or even escape from humanitarian tragedies, sailing ships today really belong to the world of maritime romantics, sailing enthusiasts and big boys toys.

South Australia's own sail training ship, the 'One And All' has been used teach sailing, to host youth training and mentoring programs as well as public recreational cruising.

Though I have admired her and photographed her many times I have never been on board. A situation I hope to remedy.
