Summary

[edit]
Description

Stornaway Harbour. Outer Hebrides. The world’s oldest civil training ship, the Danish three-masted full-rigged sailing ship Georg Stage. Launched in 1882 Originally owned by Danish shipping magnate Frederik Stage, she was designed to train sailors for the merchant navy – then in desperate need of skilled mariners due to high demands on goods.

The ship is named after his son Georg, who died from tuberculosis in 1880 aged just 23. The original figurehead is still on the ship and the foundation’s purpose is still the same: ‘to provide young people wishing to set out to sea with their first practical maritime education on board a custom-built training ship
