BB502 Vanadis Schooner

In the mid-1860's a Swedish distilling company placed a contract with the Stockholm dockyard of Soedra Varvet for the construction of a fast, elegant sailing schooner. In 1868 the 29 m long Vanadis was launched, rigged as a Newfoundland schooner. During her colourful career the vessel's high speed was in demand, and at times she operated as a smuggling boat and as a customs vessel.  She now serves as a charter vessel for extended sailing cruises, and has taken part with great success in international regattas.
