The Anny von Hamburg is a three-masted schooner .
history
The ship was built in 1914 as Anny at the C. Lühring shipyard in Hammelwarden on the Lower Weser together with seven sister ships as a cargo sailor made of iron. The 28 meter long and 6.95 meter wide vehicles were rigged as pure gaff schooners, i.e. without yards . At the foremast, however, a wide jib can be driven on a loose yard . The sails consist of three large gaff sails , the associated gaff top sails, and also four foresails , namely stag jib , jib , outer jib and jager , as well as a flyer between the fore and main mast, which results in a sail area of around 520 square meters. The masts are made of natural wood.
The Anny was delivered to Diedrich Hasseldieck from Nordenham in 1914 . Her first trip was to Saint Petersburg . There the freighter was confiscated as a result of the outbreak of the First World War and was fixed in the port as a barge for cadets for the next few years . It was brought back to Germany as the Hulk in 1925 and rebuilt into a cargo ship at the Ernst Harms shipyard in Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg for the Hamburg owner Walter Richter with the new name Hanna . The ship received a scaled-down rigging and a two-stroke engine from the Hanseatic Works in Bergedorf with 120 hp. In 1936 the motor schooner got the name Kurt Both under the new owner Max Both and the home port became Glückstadt.
During the Second World War he drove between Bremen and Heligoland to transport cement for the fortification of the island; later he went on a hitchhike to Scandinavia. In 1940, the three-master was turned into a one-and-a-half master with a new, 150 hp four-stroke engine from Deutsche Werke in Kiel. In 1950 the Kurt Both was extended by eight meters at the Fritz Frank shipyard in Hamburg-Wilhelmsburg. After the bowsprit was removed from Hugo Peters in Beidenfleth in 1952, the schooner had finally become a motor ship. After almost 32 years, the ship was deleted from the Hamburg ship register in 1957. It had been sold for 230,000 DM to Oscar Abrahamsson & Sons in Edshullshall, Sweden, for whom it drove as Ringö . In 1963 it was acquired by the Finn Paul Grönquist, who operated it as Kümo on the Baltic Sea for another 16 years .
In 1980 Jörn Deistler, managing director of Germania Schiffahrt, Hamburg, discovered the ship as Ringö in the port of Karlskrona. The former gaff schooner was partially burned out and had completely changed its appearance. Based on the old construction plans of the Lühring shipyard, a faithful restoration was sought. After a transfer voyage on its own keel, the ship was re-entered as Anny in the shipping register of its old home port Hamburg (callsign DANY).
Under the supervision of Germanischer Lloyd , the hull was shortened to the old size at the Brockmüller shipyard in Glückstadt and renewed in its original form, the rig was built and rigged by Michael Kiersgaard in Svendborg in Denmark according to the old plans. The interior of the ship has been thoroughly overhauled. A new 280 HP Deutz main engine was installed as a lull valve and two 50 HP Perkins auxiliary diesels for the power supply. Radar , satellite navigation , echo sounder and other modern navigation devices have been installed for safe navigation . In the former hold at the Asmus shipyard, Glückstadt, in the style of the time, but with modern comfort, a representative saloon, five double cabins with their own bathroom and toilet and spacious crew accommodations were installed.
In the 1990s, the shipowner Hermann Buss brought the ship to Leer (East Frisia) and had it overhauled. At the end of 2018, the entrepreneur Hans Georg Näder took over the ship in order to have it repaired again and then used as a cargo sailor through the Timbercoast shipping company project .
