Default The Texas Tall Ship Elissa takes first place in her division.

Nah, all you need to do is add some topmasts to the ones

you have now.
Add tops'ls, t'gallants, and royals; you could beat

Elissa! And if
not, think how much fun it would be climbing aloft to your

new
yardarms.

Biggest disadvantage in modern rigs IMHO, you can't swing

mutineers &
pirates from the yardarm. Swinging them from a carbon

fiber spinnaker
pole just ain't the same.



hey Doug, I saw this sweet looking small 20' boat the
other day, 2 masts, a long 8' bow sprit and yardarms for
small square sails ( not up when I saw her). I had my hands
full and couldn't get a pic.
