    Captain Barbosa really got around in those early years. Ship looks better than the Black Pearl.

    these are the real hard men of whom legend was made. what, apart from two wars of slaughter, have we done since? Oh yeah, Armstrong got us (by the skin of his highly skilled teeth) to the Moon. so what is next?

    What a wonderful photo. The ordeals that these men went through to try to be the first to the South Pole. Remarkable.

    Are you certain about the date 1911? After the 1901-1904 British National Antarctic Expedition, Discovery was sold to Hudson's Bay Company, which used her as a cargo vessel until 1916. The image does appear to be Discovery, but I wonder about that date.
