  • the construction of this new built so-called "Pfahlewer" was modelled on the fishing sea ewer that were sailed by the Blankenesean fishermen (Hamburg/Germany) in the 18. and 19. century
  • the construction of the ships was personally made and took about 5 years and a lot of friends of old sailing ships have supported
  • a lugger sail is the speciality of the ship, which was not seen in this area for a long time
  • used a sailing ship for weekend and day trips in the mud-flats between the coast and the Frisian islands
