The ship was built at the Jacobs shipyard in Moorrege . At the beginning of the 20th century, many shipyards converted from timber to steel construction , so that the Petrine already has a steel hull . The skipper Peter Bobsien commissioned the Petrine as a cargo ship . In 1909 the Petrine was one of the largest ewer of its time. The payload was 64 tons. In 1919 the ship was sold to a Danish owner and renamed Edelgaard . In 1924, the Edelgaard received its first auxiliary engine , a hot- head engine from Deutsche Eisenwerke AG that produced 31 hp. Another sale in 1926 and the renaming to Olga followed. During this time, the ship was mainly used to transport stones. In 1932 the old machine was replaced by a more powerful one with 56 hp. After another sale in 1956, the ship was renamed Svenia and in 1959 received an even more powerful engine with 100 HP, which is still used today as a drive. As early as 1969 there was another change of owner with another renaming to Tove Anette . A short time later, after another change of owner and name to Hejmakej , the ship was initially to be scrapped in 1980 . However, Hartwig Schröder took over the ship, renamed Petrine , and restored the sailor to a passenger ship and the original sails as a gaff-rigged sea-ewer.
The Petrine is a traditional ship according to the safety guidelines for traditional ships .
