This ship is all over "google" so details are easy to find, but conflicting about it's history. There are men on the masts. Two of them can be seen near the top of the foremast, on the yard arm. We encountered the El Cano between Cay Sal, and Bimini last summer in the Bahamas. It's quite a sight on the open ocean for sailing types. It is 370 ft long, and steel hull. It was built in 1927.
I traded asa speed for stability, as we were rolling in the open ocean and I was shooting with a 300mm Nikon G lens.
