Description
South Passage Tall Ship have a shallow draft to allow safe sailing in Moreton Bay and along the east coast of Australia with a flexible sail configuration to suit many different wind conditions. It was decided that South Passage would be built to sit 14-17 year olds so she was designed so all the sails can be managed from the deck. She has an aluminium hull and uses modern materials but apart from an engine everything is done manually.
She was launched on 23 September, 1993 and name South Passage after the channel between Moreton and North Stradbroke Islands. Her maiden voyage with 24 voyagers was in December 1993. This picture was taken on the 1st day of the Navy Fleet Review 2013.
