Some detail shots of the tall ship Ernestina Morrisey
Good morning, I hope life is treating you well
For today I thought I would share a few more shots of some of the details on the Tall ship Ernestina Morrisey which is often docked at the port here in New Bedford
Now I am starting with a non detail shot for those who have not seen my previous posts of this ship, so starting with the full ship

The schooner ERNESTINA-MORRISSEY, was built in 1894 at the James and Tarr Shipyard for the Gloucester fishing fleet. Under Captain Bob Bartlett she sailed to within 600 miles of the North Pole, and later brought immigrants to the U.S. under the power of sail. Returned to the US in 1982 as a gift from the newly independent Cape Verdean people, she sailed as an educator until 2005.
Nowadays here base port is here in New Bedford

Now I have never sailed on a tall ship or even any form of sail boat so I don't know a thing about proper nautical ropes or knots but I am fascinated by them and cannot resist looking at and getting shots of the ropes and pulleys
