Operating Instructions for the WEGA model boat, Order No.: 2068
Brief description of the full-size vessel
As the basis for our model we selected a typical schooner with topsail schooner rig. The term schooner was
originally applied to two-masted sailing ships whose aft mast was taller than the forward one, but later - from
the nineteenth century on - schooners were also built with several masts. Nowadays these vessels are
generally operated as museum ships, and can be admired at international sailing events. A small number of
these vessels are still operated as regular sail-training ships.
