I posted one of these photos the other day on my Posterous blog. But wanted to add a bit more to that small post.
Last Sunday we went sailing. In Boston Harbor you could see the masts of this ship - it was huge!
Here’s the shot I took from the water. (click to make them bigger)
It’s the Eos one of the world’s largest sailing yachts. And quite a beautiful site. I haven’t yet posted other pics I got that day.
This is the bowsprit which is impressively big in person.
Then we have the main part of the ship. Look at all that lovely wood. It’s just gorgeous.
The masts are downright enormous!
The sails (like all the large sailing ships) are likely computer controlled. I think what I love is that it’s got such wonderful lines and looks so graceful. It’s all very proportionate even if it is large. I would love to see how it’s sailed. However, I’m just glad we got a chance to see it and I have to thank Mr. Diller for having it built. Beautiful things are always good to have in the world.
