TS Pelican of London in Weymouth Harbour
Originally French built and completed in 1948 to work in the Arctic as a double beam trawler she was named 'le Pelican'. After 20 years she was sold to Norway, converted to a coaster and renamed 'Kadett'. Now nearly 40 years on, following a complete rebuild in Portland in Dorset, UK, she sails again as 'Pelican', this time as a main mast barquentine.
