Last year I had the opportunity to sail from The Isle of Wight to Amsterdam on a square rig Schooner called The Tres Hombres. It was the last leg of the voyage, transporting fine rum, coffee, mollasses and cocoa from the Caribean using no fossil fuels. Here are some of the shots I took of the ship and Dutch crew on an old Konica Auto S2 rangefinder. Take a look at the rest of the shots here.
