Correction is a bit late But’ the USS Constitution is a Frigate not ship of the line.HMS Victory would fit that description.
But it’s a dry heat!

Closest thing to a sailing vessel I've ever been on is a new built copy of a Great Lakes schooner that has a summer home port in Milwaukee Wisconsin :) .
I thought there were more large sailing vessels still around but I guess most of them were not built as warships.
There are a few about: they're "tall ships" if you're looking for pics. Went to see a load moored up on the Tyne when I was little.

Here she is in I believe her most recent return to service. She is still a commissioned warship in the US Navy.

There are also some very good examples in (under) the Great Lakes. Not too deep either.

Here is another sailing boat, Billings Cutty Sark . Started it Aug 1990 when i bust my leg cycling, other half bought it to keep me occupied . Think i still have the rest of the kit in the attic. Now i am getting back into the modelling hobby i might start it again.
1/16 and 1/35 tanks to give idea of size.
