I heard some roumors that the Tovarishtsh will come back under German flag
again,
because Ukraine has no money left to run the ship longer in its service ...
I said "back",
because the ship was the Gorch Fock I before WW2, and was taken and renamed
by the USSR
after WW2; and she looks very much alike the Gorch Fock (II) ... anyway, a
very beautiful vessel
that really deserves to be maintained for future generations.

Hi Jan,

I really hope that she can be brought back into service especially if
she returns to Germany because she has been away too long, it says much
for her design and construction that she has survived along with a
number of her sisters for so long especially in Russian hands, we saw
her when she was impounded in the north of England and she looked very
sorry for herself, it will be good to see her back in the Cutty Sark
Tall Ships race again,

And greetings form the U.K,

Is the sail training ship Tovarishch, in the Toll Ship group the original or is is a replica? My father was a captain on the original in 1924.
