Joseph Conrad, 1882

The Joseph Conrad with all her spars rigged square and in line with each other, and her canvas rolled tight and tied off -- all ship-shap and Bristol fashion.

 

The ship was built in Copenhagen in 1882 and named the Georg Stage. It was used to train boys for the Danish merchant service. It was purchased in 1934, renamed the Joseph Conrad, and sailed under the British flag. Today it is still used as a training ship at Mystic Seaport.
