Tall Ships Races 2017 Race 3 – Join the Statsraad Lehmkuhl from Klaipeda to Szczecin. This is a Sail Training Journey while Racing and enjoying the festivities in the ports. Meet your fellow Windseekers from different countries, and after a brief instruction you’re on your way, racing against other famous Tall Ships! On board you participate in the daily working of the ship alongside professional seamen, manning the helm, helping in the galley, hoisting sail and voluntarily have the chance to climb the rigging/mast. Sail and meet exciting people of different ages and backgrounds from all over the world! For all Windseekers, minimum age 15 years. Prenight is possible in Klaipeda and 2 afternights in Szczecin (60 EUR p.p.pn / B&B)
Klaipéda is a city in Lithuania on the Baltic Sea coast. The city has many maritime traditions - it even hosts its own Sea Festival in July! - and its architecture bears influences from several different cultures (French, German, Swedish). Take a walk down the Friedricho pasažas, visit the reconstructed Meridianas ship, find the quirky Golden Mouse sculpture and visit the Clock Museum.
Szczecin in North-Western Poland has a deep commitment to sail training. Discover the Underground City Trails: a network of bunkers from WWII with their unique atmosphere. If you're more of an outdorsy type, take a canoe along the Odra river or explore Bukowe Hills which hide the ruins of old bridges and are home to numerous boars and deer. Visit one of many museums or the Castle of Pomeranian Dukes or the beautiful rose gardens.
