Maritime College Cadets Visit DANISH SHIP IN NYC and Meet with Danish Cadets

Several cadets visited the Danmark at the South Street Seaport in NYC on September 24. They were given a tour of the tall ship and had a chance to meet and spent time with Danish maritime cadets. The Danmark was launched in 1933 from the Nakskov Shipworks in Denmark to serve as a training ship for the Danish merchant navy. After 88 years in service, the steel-hulled, three-masted, full-rigged ship still functions as a training vessel for young people seeking careers at sea. Eighty cadets aged 17-23 were training on the ship that day. They made the journey to New York along with the ship’s permanent crew of 15. The ship is property of the Kingdom of Denmark and can sail the oceans of the world. Maritime cadets enjoyed the opportunity to interact with their “global” shipmates.

Cadets from l-r: Brendan Patterson 2/C, Vin Buono 1/C, John McCafferty 1/C, Sean Corrigan 2/C, Christopher Corrigan 2/C, Michael Philbin 2/C, Patrick Philbin 4/C, and Griffin Goldleaf 2/C.
