Pedigree:

Admiral Bellingshausen was built in 1984 to the design of Peter Sijim and W. De Vries Lentsch.  Her sail plan and underwater shape was designed for all-around performance, ease of handling and a steady helm.  She has benefited from very attentive owners.  Major refit in 2005-2006 that included new decks, as well as refits in 2012-2013, 2016 when the decks were renewed with new Sikaflex, and then the most recent in 2019.

 

 

On 27 January 1820, a Russian expedition led by Admiral Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen and Mikhail Lazarev discovered an ice shelf at Princess Martha Coast that later became known as the Fimbul Ice Shelf.  Bellingshausen and Lazarev became the first explorers to see and officially discover the land of the continent of Antarctica.

 

Admiral Bellingshausen, the discoverer of the Antarctic continent was born in Estonia.  Thus, the inspiration for the trip and the name of the vessel.

 

Current owners’ expedition story:

 

The three polar voyages on the yacht Admiral Bellingshausen 2019-2023

 

On the initiative of Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Estonian Maritime Museum and NGO Thetis Expeditions, it was decided to organize a sea expedition to Antarctica to celebrate the discovery of the continent 200 years ago.

 

First a dignified ship had to be found in order to take us there. After thorough search we chose Jongert ketch built in 1984 in the Netherlands. Jongerts have been called ocean jewels and we quickly realized why. Timeless comfort and elegance, seaworthiness and optimal speed both with engine and under sails – perfect combination for great voyages. The yacht had two more crucial virtues for the colder seas: closed warm wheelhouse with 360-degree view plus steel hull for icy waters.

 

The owners of the yacht have been closely connected to the sea for decades. Some of them have sailed around the world and all the oceans and one is the owner of a shipyard. That was especially valuable for preparing the yacht for the polar voyage. That was done with the utmost care at the Baltic Workboats shipyard in Estonia.

 

The President of the Republic of Estonia, Kersti Kaljulaid, also took part in the voyage, giving the world's first digital signature on the icy continent via the Iridium satellite communication channel.

 

More than 20 researchers took part in the trip and spoke at conferences and forums in various ports, highlighting the importance of the ocean and its vulnerabilities to climate change. At the request of the telecommunications company Telia, a 10-part TV-documentary was made covering the trip. The voyage was great success and the owners of the yacht started to look North.

 

In 2021 another voyage was organized and this time to the Arctic. The voyage was focused on climate issues, maritime safety and far-away cultures. Again, a TV-documentary was made, and the yacht sailed five months in the Arctic waters visiting Faroe Islands, Iceland, East Greenland with its gorgeous Scoresby Sund, Jan Mayen and Spitsbergen. Everything functioned flawlessly, the documentary was success and we wanted more.

 

In June 2023 the yacht set sail to the third polar voyage with an ambitious aim to become the first yacht under Estonian tricolor to sail the Northwest Passage in Arctic Canada. After Roald Amundsen who was the first to pass that in 1903-1906 only about 350 vessels have managed to repeat it and only half of them have been sailing yachts. This is one of the biggest challenges one can encounter in sailing world and we faced that successfully.

The owners have become passionate about the yacht and the polar regions during those years, but it seems that as all the three goals set have been achieved, it’s time to let her go. We truly believe that the yacht deserves and is ready for new challenges, new gorgeous voyages. Our dear Old Lady is perfectly fit and ready to fulfil many more dreams in the future.  

 

 

 

2019 pre-journey refit:

With the extended and rigorous voyages planned, the vessel had to be 1) safe, 2) reliable and 3) comfortable.  These were the mandates of the owners to the refit team. 

 

The hull was ultra-sonically scanned, and all plates not within tolerance for the requirements were replaced.  The engine was replaced with a detuned commercial Volvo 400 hp engine so that it would have tremendous durability.  In fact, its first major overhaul is scheduled at 21,000 hours, and it has only 7,000 hours after four years and 60,000 sea miles.  All the ships systems were replaced to ensure reliability, these included electronic, communications, electrical, etc.  All of this has made Admiral Bellingshausen ready right now for another around-the-world cruise with just the addition of food and fuel.
