Thread: Tall Ships......

Thank you gents for beautiful pictures. There is something great in those old sailing ships. They tell about times when seafaring wasn't a play but hard work.
Here's few pics taken from Turku during Tall Ships Race.

I like the tall ships too... enough that I have them engraved on my ribs.

Whatcha packin' there Jimmy, it looks nice!


@ Galopede: Thats an American flag, after the crown pushed us out of the empire we had to take some time to develop our own. There are many early American flags with the same field, as a matter of fact this flag was very popular and many times had the words "Liberty and Union" stitched to them, indicating that we did not wish to break from Britian, but we were not going to be her dog either.

A pea shooter Sig P238 SAS. That and rotate between a Kahr P9. The bandera leather co "beltster" is the way to go AFAIC. This isn't one of theirs, I took my own belt and fashioned the same thing. His are alot more professional but it is the same idea. I have one of his coming and couldn't wait.

Thanks for the info. I had guessed something along that line but hadn't found any info on it.

While they were filming that sequence for the movie I was quite amazed to watch the Gloucester fire brigade providing heavy rain for them!
