The Golden Age of Sailing

The Age of Sail (usually dated as 1571–1862) was a period in which international trade and naval warfare were dominated by sailing ships. This is a historical fact. An alternative fact is, that it is possible to achieve elevated sensations of peace and tranquility by sailing through the golden light of an early morning with nothing but the wind at your back.

 

Ah, the infamous alternative fact--where one thing doesn't have to equal another or even make sense for that matter.
