Sailfish School.
Many boats were designed from the outset as sailing school.
In the nineteenth century, learning the art was done on the job "and began the difficult foam condition. But the changing social conditions led, on sea and on land, the need for educated and skilled people to drive efficiency and avoid human and material losses.
Most large yachts school today were designed as such. Often, these military ships , who represent their country abroad. But it can also be used to Shipping , or belong to a foundation, often affiliated with the STA (Sail Training Association ).
Many maritime countries have at least one large three-masted or a four-masted designed for this purpose between the two world wars: Norway ( Statsraad Lehmkuhl, Christian Radich , Sorlandet ) Denmark (Danmark and Georg Stage ) Italy ( Amerigo Vespu bcc), Japan (Nippon Maru , Kaïwo Maru ) Argentina ( Libertad) Spain (Juan Sebastian de Elcano ) Chile ( Esmeralda ) Belgium ( Mercator ) Indonesia ( Dewarucci ).
After the First World War, the Germans circumvented the prohibition on having a navy training their sailors on sailing ships, described as merchant ships. After the second war in 1945, boats survivors were seized and handed over to other countries. Some were still sailing: the Sag res in Portugal, the Eagle USA for example.


France has also recovered one of these ships, but left it for a long time to deteriorate. The city of Dunkirk was bought and restored: the Duchess Anne (former Grossherzogin Elizabeth ). Alas, the return seaworthy would be too expensive, and this beautiful three-masted ship, the largest we have in France, will remain floating museum.



The French navy has 3 sailing school designed for this purpose between the two wars, smaller: the schooners Star and Belle Poule , Dundee Mutin.



The Swedes also have two schooners binoculars Gladan and Falken .

Other boats are sailing-school trade or processed fish, as Sedov and Kruzenshtern Russia (former German freighter Cape Horners), the Belem in France, the Shabab Oman the Sultanate of Oman, Palinuro Italian Capitan Miranda Uruguay, Roald Amundsen and Alexander Von Humboldt in Germany

After the 2nd World War, some countries have resumed construction of sail training vessels square-rigged: Germany, the Gorch Fock in 1958, the Spain has built more for the countries of Latin America ( Guayas in Ecuador, Gloria for Colombia Simon Bolivar Venezuela, Cuauthemoc for Mexico). The Poles, meanwhile, have built several large sailboats school for them (Dar Mlodziedzy , Iskra, Pogoria ) for the Soviet Union (now sailing under the Russian flag, as Mir or Ukrainian as Kherzones ) as well as for Bulgaria ( Kaliakra ) .


The Dutch also built the Cisne Branco for the Brazilian Navy and is the twin brother of the cruise ship Stad Amsterdam. Japan has also built two alternates to the 2 four-masted, almost identical. Britain launched two brigs ( Prince Williams Scotland and Stavros Niarchos England) to replace the 3-masted schooner Malcolm Miller and Winston Churchill ; also include the 2 three-masted English adapted for the disabled: Lord Nelson and Tenacious ; the three-masted Tarangini, the Indian Navy ...
Currently, he is about to build, Saint Nazaire, 2 large three-master to the French Navy ( project Euroclippers ). After the aborted project to build a replica of the five-masted France, it will be there the day?
