dc.description.abstract This research identified risks that women perceive before embarking on a Tall Ship travel adventure experience. It was found that most participants perceived the risk of social adaptability more so than the physical risks of working at heights (going aloft), weather events and other risks associated with tall ship sailing. Also motivations for embarking on the adventure included wishing to do something unusual that would challenge technical and social skills. en_CA
