That is a beautiful ship!I've seen the Italian ship, it is striking with the white and black, then all the teak railing and longboats.
It definitely stood out in the tall ship pack.
This is the Bounty ( From the 1960 movie) a week before she sailed off to her doom in Hurricane Sandy.
I saw it moored in a cove, middle of nowhere, couple hundred miles north a few weeks earlier, thought it was pirates for sure.
The story of the Essex is unbeliveable.I like this museum for the pics. Peabody Essex

Ships typically get underway when threatened by hurricanes and heavy weather. They are much safer at sea than at a dock that will very possibly become submerged.Why was she sailing into Hurricane Sandy? What kind of crazy shit is that. The owner might have been possessed.
