Wording

I would simply wish to point out that due to the way it is punctuated the first sentence seems to be saying that the Esmeralda is the second tallest and longest sailing ship of some sort of fleet of sailing ships "used as a jail and torture center during the regime of Augusto Pinochet." 166.82.103.142 (talk) 20:45, 12 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Images

I have added some photos of Esmeralda to Commons in case they are of interest. KenWalker | Talk 06:27, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Esmeralda was at the Guam Naval Base for the liberation celebration on July 21, 2007. She arrived from Australia and will next visit China.

Infobox

I removed the stanchion and gunwale height as there was no spot for them in the ship infobox. If anyone feels this information is important and wants to add it under "ship notes" or alter the template, here it is:

Stanchion: 8.7 meters
Gunwale height: 5.3 meters

Meanwhile, can anyone track down a picture of this ship under sail? Fullobeans (talk) 19:00, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"second tallest and longest sailing ship in the world"

I've put a ^{[citation needed]} on this statement, because according to List of large sailing vessels, there are several other sailing ships still in existance that are longer and taller. Maybe it's the "second tallest and longest sailing ship in the world" of some specific type or category (ie. barquentine, military, etc.), but that isn't mentioned in the statement. If someone knows where this claim came from or can explain it, please edit the article. Lest69 (talk) 02:51, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
