About Khersones
Khersones or Chersones is a Crimean three-mast tall ship, a full-rigged ship. It was built in 1989 in Gdańsk Shipyard, Poland, in a series of six sister ships (among which also the Mir), after the designs of Polish naval architect Zygmunt Choreń. The ship is named after the city of Chersonesus an ancient city and archaeological site near Sevastopol. She partakes in many windjammer regattas. In 1997, it became the first Ukrainian ship to sail around Cape Horn by only using her sails. From 1991 to 2006 Khersones was a training ship for the Admiral Ushakov Maritime State University in Kerch, Crimea. At the same time, it was rented to the tourism company Inmaris Maritime Service GmbH as a cruise ship.
