Technical modifications reserved! 03/2011 1 Operating Instructions for the WEGA model boat, Order No.: 2068 Brief description of the full-size vessel As the basis for our model we selected a typical schooner with topsail schooner rig. The term schooner was originally applied to two-masted sailing ships whose aft mast was taller than the forward one, but later - from the nineteenth century on - schooners were also built with several masts. Nowadays these vessels are generally operated as museum ships, and can be admired at international sailing events. A small number of these vessels are still operated as regular sail-training ships.
