A pair of classic tall ships sailed into the Port of Lowestoft this week, stopping off on their voyages around the world.
The older of the two ships, STS Morgenster, was originally built as a herring lugger in 1919. Today, it is a special purpose training ship that travels around the world helping naval students learn how to sail. It sailed through Lowestoft on its way from Den Helder, in Holland, before the start of a four-day trip to Greenwich.
The second ship, STV Eendracht, is a three-masted schooner built in 1989 and run by The Sailing Sea Ship Foundation. The Foundation offers active sail training to young people, preparing them for careers in the maritime industry.
