A series of programmes about sailing ships that survived. 5: Sea Cloud
This beautiful square-rigger was originally built in the 1930s as one of the world's most extravagant wedding presents for the heiress
Marjorie Hutton. For many years Sea Cloud, the largest four-masted barque to sail under the American flag, was her private yacht.
Now the yacht is in the charter business. Her passengers enjoy the romance of voyaging under sail while living in luxury worthy of a millionairess.
