I took this picture a few years back,this was in October 1997,yes in the last century,if I knew this blog was to happen I might have noted the name of the ship,does anyone know what her name is?If you left click on either picture you will see her full screen but even then I see no name on her,she is a Baltic Trader type?
Note,many thanks to Max of www.tallshipstock.com for recognising this boat,once he named her Zebu,my memory woke up and I agree.

She is definitely a beautiful ship. I am sailing in the Tall Ships Atlantic Challenge on the Tecla and she looks similar.. I'm only guessing though!

Hi
