3 Films about the manoeuvring of an old sailing vessel for use in educational context onboard the sailing seafarer schools in Denmark. It took a couple of attempts to master landing and taking off from a small ship 5 miles off the shore, in order to get close enough to the ship to make drone footage possible, but in the end it gave us som fantastic footage and a story about old craftsmanship that for many is totally forgotten since it was scarcely described in old books with the last description crafted around the year 1900. Now it is visual, appealing, entertaining and available to everyone in a modern format, sparking interest in seafarers, non seafarers and even children from 6-10 seems to find the explanations of how ships actually work, very compelling and very interesting. We feel we have revived a little but of our common cultural history by creating and documenting this rare craft.
