  1. Hey thanks for stopping by my photoblog and inviting me to check out your sailing ship. I love tall ships. They are so majestic.
    I have started a new blog that you might be interested in viewing. I'm a hiker and I am now blogging about my hikes with photos, videos and commentary. Hope you will stop by and check it out at:

  4. Hello Pat and Bruce
    Thanks very much for your kind comment. I'm glad this photo brought back happier memories than the canal boat, and by clicking on the photo to enlarge it, you could see it in its full glory. The ships history is also very interesting, so if you "googled" HMS ROSE, you can find out more. I hope you continue to look in.
