High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Preußen (usually Preussen in English) was a German steel-hulled five masted ship-rigged windjammer built in 1902 for the famous F. Laeisz shipping company and named after the German state and kingdom of Prussia. It was the only ship of this class with five masts carrying six sails on each mast within the world merchant fleet. Until the 2000 launch of the similar Royal Clipper, a sail cruise liner, she was the only five-masted full-rigged ship ever built. The Preußen was built as hull-number 179 at the Joh. C. Tecklenborg ship yard in Geestemünde according to the plans of chief designer Dr.-Ing. h. c. Georg Wilhelm Claussen, launched and christened on May 7, 1902. The ship was commissioned on July 31, 1902, and left the harbour of Bremerhaven the same day on her maiden voyage to Iquique under the command of Capt. Boye Richard Petersen who assisted naval architect Claussen in his plans.
