I’m genuinely curious what modern day sailors have to learn aboard a ship like this that applies to the actual work they would be doing in a real world scenario, likely not aboard one of these ships.
They are getting trained to listen to and understand the see, winds, and weather conditions, because on a tall ship you have to do that to a degree incomparable to modern, engine powered ships.
thanks for the answer!
