History
Built in 1939 in Denmark, the Esther Jensen was used as a fishing boat initially.
In 1992, she was bought by Theo van Tricht, and restored and modernised. She now sails in European and Polar waters as a sail training vessel, offering escorted sailing holidays.[1] She is eligible to take part in The Tall Ships' Races organised by Sail Training International.
gollark: My increasingly convoluted Discord-based message routing is continuing. Via an IRC bridge bot, someone else's inter-channel relay thing, and my own bot's "phone" feature, messages can now go through THREE layers of indirection!
gollark: It's possible.
gollark: Anyway, try and work out what subtopics offer the highest exam marks per unit time, then focus on revising those, but don't spend too long on that or you will lose time on actually revising it.
gollark: You should probably do that? Sleep deprivation is no joke.
gollark: Anyway, if for some reason you *can't* do that, you almost certainly cannot revise a year of stuff in two complex subjects very well and should just try and work out what to prioritize.
