Description

In 1994 a small group of sailing enthusiasts led by Vladimir Martus started construction of a replica of the historical ship. Martus developed a new layout of the Shtandart wherein she was built with four bulkheads, dividing her into five compartments. The replica frigate has three masts and her displacement is 220 tons. She is 25.88 metres (82.0 ft) registered length, 27.5 metres (90 ft) long on deck and 34.5 metres (113 ft) long overall. The Shtandart is 7.0 metres (23 ft) wide with a draft of 3.0 to 3.3 metres (11 ft). The ship is designed for speeds between 8-9 knots under sail, and under auxiliary engines she can make up to 13 knots (25 km/h). The original crew complement in 1703 was between 120 and 150, and the modern crew consists of 30 trainees and 10 officers.

Oh, my! This must make the Swedish navy tremble in their shoes! Sweden's former prime minister said Russia is the greatest threat to Sweden (ha, ha!). And, my, here we have the proof! Thanks for the description and photos.

Does this ship sail out in the Baltic and Atlantic with young people? :-)
