Sail on tall ships

The Pascual Flores is a traditional pailebot schooner, built in 1917 at the Torrevieja shipyard (Spain). Originally, this sailboat with a wooden hull was dedicated to the transport of goods, in particular fruit, salt and various cargoes in the Mediterranean and on the Atlantic. A symbol of the golden age of sailing freight, it went through numerous changes in ownership and functions throughout the 20th century.

Built in 1937 by the Companhia União Fabril (CUF) in Lisbon, the Santa Maria Manuela is a four-masted schooner emblematic of the Portuguese cod fleet. Initially designed as a cod fishing vessel, it sailed for over two decades on the banks of Newfoundland in Canada, representing Portuguese maritime expertise.
