  "ALL I ASK IS A TALL SHIP" Stan sets sail on board the `Sorlandet` on the training leg of the 1980 Tall Ships race and helps the new recruits "learn the ropes" - literally ! The story of the training sessions are full of Stan's anecdotes about his life at sea and the ease at which he moves about the tall full rigged ship at the age of 76 is quite remarkable.   The World About Us
