Oosterschelde is the largest restored Dutch sailing ship. She originally carried freight along the coasts of northern Europe, the Mediterranean and North Africa. Following her restoration in 1992, she has made several impressive journeys, including a round-the-world trip and to Antarctica, Japan and New Zealand. She is also a good racer, having won her class in the Tall Ships Races 2003 and won second place twice during the Race of the Classics.
