  1. They are currently in Oostende, Belgium. It’s an event this weekend called “Oostende voor anker” where old and vintage boats gather. Quite cool actually!

  2. HAS THE ARMADA FINALLY MADE IT?!? ARE WE SAVED?

  3. Still cannot believe the Habsburgs got cucked out of a world conquest by British weather and suicide boats

  4. I remember once when I was back in the States an ex, Colombian, had her cousin dock with their Colombian naval boat at a show.

    All the Americans were awed by the old school classic boats.

    There’s even a story about the Italian training ship, [Amerigo Vespucci wowing them](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_training_ship_Amerigo_Vespucci).

    I guess when things are mass-produced and everything is modern, there is an increased emphasis in the beauty of things made the traditional way.
