Another Iconic Tall Ship Lost

Recommended Posts

It's a grim duty I take upon myself to report the loss of another iconic tall ship. The brig Unicorn of Roots, Curse of the Black Perl, Deadman's Chest and At Worlds End fame sank yesterday. The exact cause is unknown but fortunately all 10 of her crew escaped to safety. Though it's not exactly Lego related I'm sure many here will regret her loss.

Take note, this was not Lady Washington/Interceptor. As far as I know she's still floating and doing fine.

Sad to hear.. shows how even in these times with modern safety regulations such things can still happen.

Fortunately enough most real valuable historic ships are in a dry dock.

A very sad loss indeed. Tall ships remain to this day an icon of true adventure. :(
