Its a Naval training ship so to head out ubnder engines is a Cheat IMHO. Should have been under sail with the arms manned. I remember visiting Portsmouth back in 1996 and watching from HMS Dolphin's Mess Room, in company with my brother Nuclear Submarine Fleet Chief Engineer (Retired) an American battleship entering harbour. All the sailors of the battleship were manning the deck and guns. Quite a stunning sight deserving another round of rum.
They did a full display with hands on the yards etc and flags flying etc as they came up to their berth in Melbourne. Some 5 hrs steaming away from the heads.
That was fascinating to watch. The Mexican sailing ship is a beauty 👍🏼⛵️
Glad you enjoyed the video Susan.
Was great to meet you on this day, appreciate your knowledge and wisdom and keep up the great work with your videos.
It was a pleasure to meet you!

Love to have seen the MEX under full sail 😢
Yes it would have but wind conditions did not help that to happen.
Nice video❤❤❤

Does sailing ship need a pilot boat. The Mexican navy.
Maybe we should get some old ships like this for our navy.
Yes a pilot was aboard the Sailing ship from the dock to outside the heads.
The ENDURANCE looks very scrappy for only 4 years in service
Sailors belong on ships
Ships belong at sea
Underway is the only way
The only way for me.
