One of the last original Brigantine in the Mediterranean
| Florette was built in 1921 with the knowledge of the old shipwrights. She was heavily constructed at the end of the windjammer-era. She is part of one of the last original wind ships, which were built without an engine in the Mediterranean. Thanks to the great craftsmanship of the Picchiotti-yard with her graceful lines and construction, she is today one of the last real maritime jewels. |
