The training ship Juan Sebastian Elcano docked in Bilbao for some days in her way to the International Maritime Festival in Brest. This is the only tall ship of the Spanish Army and, although it's named like one of the most famoust basque sailors, it very rare to see her in these waters. That's why it was all a pleasure to sail her wake aboard of Lady Chatterley.
El barco es un bergantín-goleta construído en 1927 y dedicado a la formación de guardiamarinas. Gracias al chivatazo que nos dio un amigo de Rafa que es tripulante del barco, pudimos salir con mucha antelación y situarnos en una posición inmejorable para tomar algunas fotografías espectaculares (Rafa las pondrá en su web cualquier día de éstos, prometo avisar cuando lo haga).
The boat is a big schooner built in 1927 and dedicated to the training of midshipmans (future officers). Thanks to a Rafa's friend who is a crew member we knew the exact time and date of arrival so we could go out to the sea with time enough to be in a perfect position to take some espectacular pictures (I promise to notify it when Rafa publish the photos in his web).
