PLYMOUTH is looking to attract more tall sailing ships after the successful visits of a trio of masted vessels.
Plymouth Waterfront Partnership chief executive Jon Walton said he is in talks with tall ship companies and would like to see more vintage vessels calling at Britain's Ocean City.
He said the recent visits by the Oosterschelde, El Galeón and the Pelican of London were a hit with the public and such ships have potential to bring an economic lift too.
