We’ve arrived in Rostock for the Hanse Sail!

Our refit AVONTUUR performed outstandingly on her first voyage from Elsfleth to Rostock reaching speeds of up to 11.5 knots!  The crew and volunteers turned trainees are already telling tales of “passing south of Moen” and getting “laid up in Læsø.”  Join us this weekend for all the juicy insights.
