Description

Named after the German state and kingdom of Prussia, Preussen was built  in 1902, Germany.  A 133 meter long steel-hulled five-masted ship-rigged windjammer. It was the largest of the Flying P-liners. The Flying P-liners were the sailing ships of the German F. Laeisz shipping company renowned for their cruising speed, high reliability and their name all starting with the letter P.

Many considered Preussen to be the fastest sailing ship of its time. In 1910, while crossing the Channel she was rammed by a small British steamer. Preussen was tugged towards Dover but attempts to put her to safety failed as the tug could not cope with her sheer size in gale force conditions and she broke onto rocks at Crab Bay where she sunk.
