Question Would you do an ocean crossing on a tall ship?

Has the idea of tall ship cruising across either the Pacific or Atlantic ever appealed to you?

Would you prefer to be a passenger or part of the crew?

Do you think tall ships are romantic or out of date?

I have to say that this would appeal to me. However I wouldn't want the seas to be to rough. I would also like to take part in the active sailing of the ship, but me climbing up the masts may be a bit difficult, as I am scared of heights. But hey I 'll give it ago.
