There is something very romantic about a tall ship under sail. I imagine that the real experience can be a lot more realistic however. Like many things from "the good old days" the absence of modern convenience and technology can get old fast. A cruise without vacuflush? A hammock to replace your cabin? Open seating (like in the open) for meals? For sure, a tall ship would make for a wonderful one or two day trip but I'll be looking for that private cabin with a tile bath ( not to mention SatNav and on board WiFi) for longer journeys.
