Default Philly June 2015 Tall Ships, Sagres - 150625152011-0326-Edit.jpg [1/1]

Took this last year in Philly.

Tall Ships Philadelphia - Sagres - The Sagres was built in 1937 in shipyard of
Blohm & Voss in Hamburg and named the Albert Leo Schlageter. She was the 3rd of
four ships built by the German Navy including the Horst Vessel (now the US
Coast Guard ship, Eagle). and the Gorch Fock (now the Tovarishch of Ukraine).
During World War II she was taken to Bremerhaven shipyard after damage from a
mine and captured by the U.S. forces in 1945. The ship was given to Brazil in
1948 and sailed in as a training ship in the Brazilian Navy under the name
Guanabara. In 1962 she was purchased by Portugal purchased to replace the old
sail training ship Sagres and is often referred to as the Sagres II.
