		Tall Ship is a somewhat informal collective term for some kinds of sailing ships, mostly large, traditionally square-rigged sailing vessels.
		Contrary to other sailing ship classifications, Tall Ship does not describe a particular kind of sailing ship identified by a sailing configuration - both barques and barquentines, for instance, are Tall Ships, as are schonners, brigs and brigantines, yawls, cutters and sloops.
		As Tall Ships frequently race each other from port to port, and hull length is a major determinent for speed, the vessels have been grouped into class size to keep competition fair.

	Tall Ship
		late-nineteenth-century definition of a 'tall ship' was one that crossed royal yards - at least among the pedants residing in their fo'c'sles, perhaps other dates and other communities used the words differently.
		When the "tall ship races" began, the term was probably used legitimately, though some of the big sail training ships at the time were bald-headed (nothing above the upper topgallants [1]).
		It is fairly evident, however, that "tall ship" as a generic term used in regard to sail training, races and other assemblages of sailing vessels, almost certainly owes its current popularity to modern media coverage of such events from the 1950s onward [2].
