I was lucky enough to be invited on the Lady Nelson to sail out to meet the Tenacious which is the largest operational wooden tallship in the world. |
The Windeward Bound joined us |
We found the Tenacious at anchor waiting for us to escort her back up the river. |
The white tallship is called the Rhona H and she is about 16 metres long as is the Lady Nelson. |
The pilot boat comes to assist her into harbour. |
Even the Tenacious is dwarfed by a cruise ship. |
At the end of the day the sails have to be packed away. My husband is top left. |
