History

Christian Radich is well known through the international release of the 1958 Cinemiracle movie Windjammer. Christian Radich sailed to the United States in 1976 as part of the Bicentennial Celebration, and partook in the Operation Sail parade in New York Harbor on 4 July 1976. The ship also appeared in the 1970s BBC TV series The Onedin Line, as one of James Onedin's ships.[3]

The vessel was initially built to train sailors in the Norwegian merchant navy, and did so for many years. Since 1999, the ship has been on the charter market as well as sailing with paying trainees to foreign ports on summer trips, participating in the Cutty Sark Tall Ships Race, Operation Sail events, and large sail events in European ports. In 1980, the vessel won the OpSail 80 race from Boston, USA to Kristiansand, Norway, taking 17 days to do so. It was the first time a tall ship had beaten the racing yachts in both uncorrected and corrected time.

Christian Radich won the first race of the Tall Ships Race 2010 in Class A, from Antwerp to Skagen in Denmark, a distance of Шаблон:Convert just under two days with an average speed of Шаблон:Convert, with the corrected time of 1 day, 4 hours, 29 minutes, and 44 seconds, and won the overall race 2010, making this the ship's fifth victory in the Tall Ships Race.[4]
