2022_Tall Ships Races_Antwerp

Visit Antwerp with Tony A. while the Tall Ships were in the harbour. The next day, we also visited Doel, where we could see some of the participating ships leaving Antwerp...

Some of the pictures were taken with my mobile, others with my DSLR (Canon 5DmkIV + EF24-70mm F/4 L IS USM & EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM).

    The sail training ship "Zenobe Gramme" was originally designed as an ocenanographic research vessel by the naval architect Van Dyck and was built in 1961 at the former Boel shipyards in Temse, Belgium. She is named after the scientist Zenobe Gramme, the inventor of the dynamo (1869). She was used as a research vessel until 1970, since then she has exclusively been used as a sail training and public relations vessel. BNS Zenobe Gramme, a 29m Bermuda Ketch, is owned and operated by the Belgian Navy. The ship has been adopted by the Brussels Royal Yacht Club. Her home port is the Belgian Naval Base in Zeebrugge. The crew consists of 1 officer, 6 crewmembers and 10 trainees.
