Default Tall Ships of Twilight 2000

A place for discussing known tall ships that could be active in the Twilight 2000 world of late 2000 early 2001 - this is just a sampling and shows the kind of ships that could be encountered either in the hands of navies, marauders and pirates or in commercial sevice as freighters

Canon has two known tall ships

USS Hyman Rickover - in USN service - armed barkentine Gazela Primeiro

USS Constitution replica - armed frigate

original USS Constitution - she is not mentioned in Last Submarine and her fate is not indicated in Gateway to the Spanish Main - so she could have been taken by the USN for use

Real World examples that should still be in operation if they werent lost

Concordia - barkentine in Canadian navy service

KRI Dewaruci - Indonesian Navy barkentine

Arung Samudera - Indonesian Navy Class B schooner

USS Niagara - sailing brig from the War of 1812 - Lake Erie

USCGC Eagle (WIX-327) - Barque in Coast Guard Service pre-war

USS Constellation - she would have been in a refit in Baltimore and thus if finished able to sail on her own by mid 1998
