Welcome aboard the "HMS" Rose, a replica of
an 18th century Royal Navy frigate that cruised the American
coast during the Revolutionary War.
Built in Lunenburg,
Nova Scotia, the Rose recently appeared as the HMS
Surprise in the 20th Century fox film Master
and Commander: Far Side of the World starring Russell
Crowe and directed by Peter Weir.
| Rose is a U.S. documented vessel,
inspected and certified by the U.S. Coast Guard as a
Sailing School Vessel. As such she meets different
safety standards than those for passenger vessels.
Persons sailing aboard Rose participate in the
ship's operation to the best of their ability. Rose
meets or exceeds all U.S. and international safety
requirements for a vessel of her size and class. |
