In 1961 I was there as Chiefmate, under the comand of Captain António Marques da Silva. Thore were the good old days! Cap. Carlos Anastacio

I drank with her crew in St. Johns Newfoundland in 1968, when she was still in the White Fleet, could't understand any of im but thay knew how to drink rum!
-
The moment I saw the first frames I knew she was a Barquentine, as opposed to a schooner. Of the 3 masts, the foremast is square rigged, while the main and aft mast are gaff rigged. Thus, a barquentine.

Haha, I was actually wondering what the luffing was about.

She's a Barkentine. I've been crew on her for eleven years and she has always been a barkentine.
