- discovery of an unfinished cog in the Weser mudflats in 1962, this ship was probably covered with sand and mud during a storm in 1380, it was preserved in good condition, her measurements and preserved sections were used as a model for the replica built of this old cog, a new yard called the "Hanse-Kogge-Werft" Bremerhaven was set up for this purpose.
- keel laid on July 21, 1988.
- the sail dimensions and functionality were tested through repeated sailing experiments.
- the ship is equipped with a modern diesel engine, nautical equipment and a rudder. She therefore combines historical style with current technology and safety features.
