Description
SLarsen is one of the last cargo carrying sailing ships built in oak by the Danish ship building family SLarsen & Sons in Nykobing Mors, Northern Denmark in 1949. She traded throughout Scandinavia, Iceland, Northern Europe, and Britain carrying general cargo, timber, and grain as late as 1972. Purchased in 1978 by Tony and Fleur Davies, she was brought back to Colchester in Essex and lovingly restored to the graceful 19th century Brigantine she is today.
SLarsen began her working life again in early 1979, and achieved international fame as a star of the BBCs classic series The Onedin Line. Other film work followed included French Lieutenants Woman, and Shackleton, which took her to the Arctic to play the role of the Endurance in the pack ice. During filming she became the first wooden sailing ship to reach Arctic Greenland in seventy years.
