UNDER SAIL

Kruzenshtern or Krusenstern is a four-masted barque that was built in 1926 at Geestemünde in Bremerhaven, Germany as Padua (named after the Italian city). She was surrendered to the USSR in 1946 as war reparation and renamed after the early 19th-century Baltic German explorer in Russian service, Adam Johann von Krusenstern (1770–1846). She is now a Russian sail training ship.

Of the four remaining Flying P-Liners, the former Padua is the only one still in use, mainly for training purposes, with her home ports in Kaliningrad (formerly Königsberg).

The jib - sail

The jib and the jib boom were introduced in 1705 for smaller ships as a replacement for the older spritsail and spritsail topmast and were also adopted by the largest ships built at the time by 1719. From the beginning, the foresail proved to be a great advance in the efficiency of a sailing ship on the wind and was, as the author of the Marine Dictionary (1771) wrote, ‘a sail that works very well in crosswinds and especially when travelling under sail’.

The jib is a triangular sail set by sailing ships on the stays of the foremast. The largest square-rigged sailing ships of the late 19th and early 20th century carried up to six jibs, which were named from aft to forward: Storm, inner, outer, flying, spindle and jib jib, the last of which was only hoisted in very light weather. Smaller sailing ships, especially those with a foremast, usually set only one jib; other triangular sails set in front of the foremast are called staysails.

In the old jib rig, in which a bowsprit carried a foremast stay beyond the stem of the ship to provide additional support for the mast, the jib was set on this stay, while the staysail was attached to the forestay. The modern Bermudian rig has no bowsprit, and the only forestay is set on or even inside the forecastle, and this usually carries only a large jib, with no staysail set. These large jibs, whose clew extends well beyond the mast, are known as genoa or Yankee jibs, and in the 1930s some J-class racing yachts set a double-sheet jib.

She is now a Russian sail training ship.

Of the four remaining Flying P-Liners, the former Padua is the only one still in use, mainly for training purposes, with her home ports in Kaliningrad (formerly Königsberg) and Murmansk. After Sedov, another former German ship, she is the largest traditional sailing vessel still in operation. (wikipedia)
