In the year 1905 a special ship was launched in Hamburg and took its
position in the Elbe Estuary: the lightship ELBE 2. For more than 70
years it withstood all weather conditions until it was removed from
service. As the ship’s contour line resembles a sailing vessel a
German owner could realize a dream in the early 80s: the ship was
converted into an elegant three-masted barquentine and henceforth
sailed with guests in Western Europe and the Caribbean under its new
name ATLANTIS. In 2005 the square-rigger was taken over by the
Tallship Company. Now it was time for the ship to
undergo a general refurbishment, while maintaining its unique,
classy character. In 2006 the ATLANTIS will again set sail to cruise
mostly close to the Balearic Islands and the Cote d’Azur. |
