Kruzenshtern


The huge square rigger moored alongside the quay in St. John's harbour this weekend is the 1926 Russian four-masted barque Kruzenshtern. The top third of her foremast is missing due to a storm off Bermuda on June 23. Click the image to enlarge.

Here's a shot of Kruzenshtern under full sail - with a complete foremast.
