ST Malo – Lisbon Tall Ships Race 2006
Pictures taken in Torbay at the start of the 50th Anniversary Tall Ships Race 2006. Some interesting shots of Creoula, Lord Nelson, Jens Krogh, Christian Radich, TS Royalist, Sagres and Pen Duick VI taken on a very foggy day in Torbay.















































That was a surreal morning. I was aboard STS Bodrum, the Turkish wooden schooner. I can’t forget the start where the (faster) square riggers piercing through the fog behind us.
Hi, yes indeed a surreal day. My only access to the ships on the day was to get several day returns on the Isle of Wight ferry from Portsmouth to Fishbourne. I remember they were crowded so I had to stand on the outside deck seats to get some pictures 😀 – It must have been nice for you to be on STS Bodrum
