And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
I'm pretty sure that second from last photo with the dolphin striker skimming waves is the Schooner Atlantic. My favorite stat is she carries 18,500 square feet of canvas. That's a panel 136 feet on a side. Amazing. Great idea here Cee Dub, you've a good eye.
The middle photo screams foolhardy to one who has suffered the inevitable tiny shift of wind from astern that leaves one sailing by the lee for about a microsecond before the jibe.
It calls, my friend, it screams!
