    A feat to sail in high winds no doubt. how beautiful she looks....

    I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
    And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by,
    And the wheel's kick and the wind's song and the white sail's shaking,
    And a grey mist on the sea's face, and a gray dawn breaking.


    Part of a poem by John Masefield.
