About	Richard Blount would like to se more of this ship, then he saw my foto "seagull". Here it is, and mabye other like it to???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ..............................................................................Some History and data on the boat...................................History. The schooner "Marilyn Anne" was built in 1919 for Mr. Kroman from Marstal, and sailed under the name "Frem", mostly to Newfoundland (Denmark- Portugal- Newfoundland- Iceland- Denmark) but she also went as far as Tunis, Marocco and South America. In 1939 the ship was sold to Skaerhamm in Sweden and sailed under the name "Vestvåg". She mainly sailed around the north of Europe, and during the Second World War in the Baltic sea. After the war she was used as a fishing wessel around Iceland. In 1958 the ship returned to Denmark and now she was called "Vest" of Aalborg Here it mostly sailed with coal, fertilizer and things related. In 1968 an american bought the ship, he called it "Marilyn Anne". He tried to restore it, but had to give it up in 1977. In 1978 the local authorities in Struer bought the ship. After a thorough restoration she was taken over by a joint enterprise (the local authorities in Struer, Herning, Holstebro and the county council in Ringkøbing) DATA: Type:3 masted scooner Brt: 134 ton Length: 29.16 m + bowsprit 9 m Width: 7.60 m Deep-draught: 2.70 m Main-mast:a.w. 25,5 m Engine: 256 Hp.
