A three-masted Barkentine Sailing Ship

This magnificent vessel was built in 1962 as an expedition vessel / trawler, and rebuilt in 1993 as a sailing vessel / special purpose ship. During the rebuilding of the vessel into a three-masted Barkentine, all engines were completely overhauled under the Polski Rejestr Statkow ( Polish Register of Shipping). Our agent in Europe inspected the vessel ashore and at sea in the German Bight and found the sailing characteristics to be very good with a perfect stability. The vessel was in a tip top condition and suitable for her purpose. Compared to other sailing vessels of her dimensions she is "one of a kind," with more Luxury and comfort than most.
