Ahoy, all hands! Aboard a sailing vessel the term aloft refers to the overhead rigging. The rigging seen aloft here is aboard the brig, Lady Washington. View all the interpretations today for the letter A at Mrs Nesbitt's ABC Wednesday.

I do like the old sailing ships and will get out to see them when they make to Bellingham or Everett.
Great idea for the letter A.
You Eagle shot certaintly is one of the best of 2009. I remember when you posted it earlie. Great shot. MB
The Lady Washington is a gorgeous ship. I always love seeing her.
Applause from me - of course. It is nice to see that such ships are taken well care of. There are few subjects more suited for photography than sailing vessels - and I bet you could do the whole ABC with nautical expressions!
Impressionnante cette photo, avec tous ces mats et cette voilure...il est magnifique
Your photo made me aware of the amount of rope used on these sailing ships.
This sort of reminds me of the boats I saw at Antayla Harbor in Turkey and on my Pick a Peck of Pixels Blog.
Lots of work on these boats. You got to have upper body strength to deal with those ropes and sails. Unless it is all done by motors -- these days.

Interesting photo with all the wire and strings on that boat. Wouldn't you hate to untangle that mess? LOL.

Oof, what a mess of ropes! I'm amazed the sailors can make sense of this. Another reason for admiring them!
Ah, she's such a beautiful ship! Those are the sights that make it such fun to go to Port Townsend! Marvelous capture, Raf! Hope your week is going well!
Sylvia

I'm now part of the ABC Wednesday Team; thank you for participating!
Beautiful shot - a wonderful A post!
lovely pic
Ahoy, there! Aye, and a right piratey post you have here today, me heartie! And the Lady Washington! Excellent choice.
Did you know she was used in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies? A fine boat - ship! - to be sure!
«Louis» is always in awe of these sailing ships.
We romanticize them now - but sailing on them must have been a hard life.
