*** About Tall Ships: Tall ships are large, traditionally-rigged sailing vessels. This term often refers to the types of ships that were used during the Age of Discovery and through the 18th and early 19th centuries, primarily for naval or commercial purposes. These vessels are celebrated for their majestic appearance and the complex skill required to operate them. Historically, tall ships were the backbone of international commerce and military might, carrying goods, people, and firepower across the world's oceans. Today, they are mostly used for training and educational purposes, serving as floating classrooms that teach traditional sailing techniques and maritime history.
