Großherzogin Elisabeth is a 1909 German sailing ship built as the San Antonio, a replacement for the 1907 freighter San Antonio which had been lost in a collision at sea.[1]
San Antonio was bought from Skillinge in November 1965 by Werner Sandberg. Her new home port was Hovenäset, Sweden. The skipper was Jan Sandberg. San Antonio operated the Baltic Sea and North Sea freight. She is the world's first motor sailor with a diesel engine. On 8 November 1973 she was acquired by the German shipowner Hartmut Paschburg and was a cruise ship on the Mediterranean for several years, operating with the name Ariadne.[1]
In 1982, the ship was sold to the Kreis of Wesermarsch and the sail training club Schulschiffverein "Großherzogin Elisabeth" e. V. was founded. Since 1993, the club has been owner of the ship.[1]
Today, Großherzogin Elisabeth is primarily used for sail training and is based in Elsfleth.[3]
