QUEEN GALADRIEL – 1937 33M BALTIC TRADER

 

Built in 1937 as a Baltic Trader, Queen Galadriel is 33m overall with a gaff ketch rig. Her original name was ‘Else’, after the Captain’s daughter.

 

The Cirdan Sailing Trust took ownership of Queen Galadriel in 1983 and have maintained her as a sail training vessel ever since.
