Alexander von Humboldt II

in photography •  7 years ago 

Alexander von Humboldt II is a German sailing ship built as a replacement for the ship Alexander von Humboldt, which had been launched in 1906 and used for sail training since 1988.
Constructed in 2011 by Brenn- und Verformtechnik (BVT) in Bremen, Alexander Von Humboldt II (or ‘ALEX 2’) continues the work of her predecessor in making tall ship sailing available to anybody, no matter their previous experience. With up to 25 crew and 54 trainees aboard, ALEX 2 usually sails voyages of 1 to 14 days across the North and Baltic seas through the summer before heading south to the Mediterranean, The Canaries or the Caribbean for the winter. You’ll often find her taking part in the annual Tall Ships Races and Regattas organised by Sail Training International.
