Sailing Ship Sunset

Owing to the simplicity of their rigging, coastal schooners were among the last commercial sailing vessels to remain in operation. Written by one of the men who worked the schooners, this authentic portrayal of a now obsolete way of life is steeped in the details and lore that could only be acquired by firsthand experience. The author sailed on the Alert in 1934 and the Brooklands in 1939 and maintained an avid interest in the ships, never missing an opportunity to record their finer details. His wonderfully meticulous drawings are a unique compliment to the text and will be highly valued by modelers and all enthusiasts of the last days of sail.

Oscar-nominated Director Henry Hathaway (1935: "Lives Of A Bengal Lancer") enlisted an all-star cast, headed by Gary Cooper in a "smash performance" ("The Hollywood Reporter"), for "You're In The Navy Now," a hilarious, critically-acclaimed comedy that also features memorable performances by Jane Greer ("Out Of The Past"), Eddie Albert ("Roman Holiday") and Jack Webb ("Sunset Boulevard")! Based on the Navy's real-life experiment with a steam engine in a WWII submarine chaser, the film follows the misadventures of the ill-prepared crew of a ship on trial runs. Led by a captain (Cooper) who is as inexperienced as his officers they don't call them the "90-day wonders" for nothing! - they sail out to sea on an unforgettable journey. They'll either sink or swim... but they'll make history either way! Aspect Ratio: 1.

Transport by sailing ship - Any ship is a total institution; a sailing ship on the open seas, being dependent on the winds, is especially isolated; in the age of sail, the technology of shipboard life and the lack of technology for communicating emergencies and of timely means of rescue made ships the probable epitome of the total-institution problem (with the most arguable alternative being space stations and outer-space exploration vehicles).

German sailing ship Albert Leo Schlageter - The Albert Leo Schlageter, now the Portuguese Sagres II, is a three-masted tall ship launched on 30 October 1937 at Blohm & Voss in Hamburg for the German navy (Kriegsmarine) as a training vessel for cadets, sistership of the Gorch Fock, the Horst Wessel, and the Romanian training vessel Mircea. Another sister, Herbert Norkus, was not completed.

Sailing ship accidents - Sailing ships were (and are) frequently put in the way of difficult conditions, whether by storm or combat, and the crew frequently called upon to cope with accidents, ranging from the parting of a single line to whole destruction of the rigging, and from running aground to fire.
