Amsterdam, The Netherlands, August 19th 2015: Tall ships from all around the world sail down the North Sea Canal today, to Amsterdam and the city's "SAIL 2015" festival. In addition to the assembled thousands of small boats, organisers say a record 600 vintage and replica vessels will participate in the "Sail In Parade", of which 50 are tall ships, in this the 9th edition of the event, which takes place every five years. At least 1,700,000 spectators are expected to attend the regatta over the five days. © Nick Gammon / Alamy Live News
