Reprinted from online description of Pamir:
We witnessed a drama reminiscent of that era, the age when clipper ships reigned supreme. As we watched in fascination, the Pamir charged towards us. The vast ocean boiled at her bow. Her sails, fully unfurled, presented a majestic sight�billowing in the gale, she swept past with dignified speed at 14 knots. Flags from Snohomish (Argentinian tug) was raised, spelling "Bon Voyage," as her steam whistle sounded a farewell to the last great tall ship. Soon, her hull vanished over the horizon.
