At first I was sure she was the TS Royalist, but now I'm not so sure. Either way - isn't she fabulous! And look at the sails on the horizon. I wonder who's chasing her.

There you go alex_beecroft. Such a beautiful and inspiring sight. :D Thanks, Jess.

Ah, how lovely! There's such a sense of power, which is odd, really, since it should really be a sense of surrender. (The power doesn't belong to the ship, the ship merely yeilds to it as much as it can.)

It's like watching a buzzard in a thermal. It looks effortless but just think of all the constant trimming and adjustment that must be going on to exploit that natural power.
