Sea Cloud Spirit
Sea Cloud Spirit is the world's youngest tall ship: 28 hand-set sails, a 138-metre three-masted barque, 136 guests. Classic sailing romance combined with modern boutique comfort and a crew-to-guest ratio that anticipates wishes before they are spoken.
In northern Europe, Spirit shows that the romance of sail works in cooler waters too: the Scottish islands, the Irish coast, Brittany - waters with real character.
