I too, love looking at tall ships from my wee boaty.  It must be really
wonderful to paddle amongst so many at once!  There's one who's
homeport is nearby (Lady Washington - at Grays Harbor), and whenever
she's in town, I love paddling around her, admiring the woodwork (she
was built in the traditional style), and watching the crew scramble up,
down, and all around the rigging.

Lady Washington is also equipped with a blank-shooting cannon, and when
I'm around, her captain enjoys shooting me out of the water (I will not
be intimidated! ;-)).
