'Elena Maria Barbara' - Topsail Schooner Vessel

Replica of an 18th century armed topsail schooner

The Vessel is a Russian built replica of an 18th Century Baltic 29 metre topsail schooner which is in an unfinished state, being 80% through a major restoration project. She was originally made from soft wood material and has been rebuilt with hard wood by specialist craftsmen, making her only one of her kind.

ELENA has been built to a design by naval architect Andrey Ahkmeton, she is based on a set of lines drawn up by Fredrik Af Chapman and taken from his monumental work ‘Architectura Navalis Mercatoria’ published in 1768.

She is the last of five 18th century stylised vessels which formed a part of ‘Peter the Great’s Navy’, a fleet built specifically for the city of St Petersburg’s tri-centennial celebrations in 2003.
