 The Gorch Fock is a German 3-mast barque. Originally built as a school ship for the German Navy, she was taken as war reparation by the USSR after World War Two. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union the ship sailed under the Ukrainian flag from 1992 to 1993. In 1995, she was transferred to Newcastle-upon-Tyne for repairs, which however, never began. In 1999, she was moved to Wilhelmshaven and finally acquired by private sponsors and transferred to her original home port of Stralund, Germany. She is a museum ship today, and although efforts are being made to re-activate her, it is unlikely she will ever sail again.
