The ''Stad Amsterdam'' (''City of Amsterdam'') is a three-masted clipper that was built in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, in 2000 at the Damen Shipyard. The ship was designed by Gerard Dijkstra who modelled her after the mid-19th century frigate ''Amsterdam'', but she is not a replica. A major difference is that the hull is made of steel. The owners call the ship a "modern extreme clipper in historical perspective", meaning that the construction method is a combination of the best qualities of clippers of the past, outfitted and built with modern techniques but with a classic "look and feel". She is a very fast ship, with 15 knots being a normal speed. She won the 2001 Cutty Sark Tall Ships' Race. The building of the hull in 1997/98 was used as a work experience project for the unemployed (e.g. metalworking and welding). The ship was first presented to the public at the 2000 edition of SAIL Amsterdam. During the 2005, 2010 and 2015 editions of the event she was the flagship. The ''Stad Amsterdam'' is used for training and as a charter-ship for guests. The crew are mainly from the Netherlands and Denmark and the official language on board is English. Her home port is Amsterdam. In September 2009 ''Stad Amsterdam'' was refitted to accommodate a televised research expedition, tracing the second voyage of HMS ''Beagle'' (1831–1836). The ship re-sailed the route of the ''Beagle'' in approximately 8 months while collecting information to allow comparison between Charles Darwin's ''Beagle'' observations and the current ones. The show was aired by the Dutch public broadcaster VPRO as ''Beagle: In Darwin's wake'' (''Beagle: In het kielzog van Darwin''). The ''Stad Amsterdam'' celebrated her 15th anniversary at the five-day SAIL Amsterdam 2015 tall ships festival in August 2015. The occasion was commemorated with the publication of a book about the ship, with contributions from Eberhard van der Laan - the Mayor of Amsterdam - and the co-founder of the ship, Frits Goldschmeding. ==Specifications== *Full-rigged tall ship *Deck Length: 60.5 m *Length Overall: 76 m *Beam: 10.5 m *Air draught (height): 46.3 m *Draught: 4.8 m *Sail area: 2200 m² (29 sails) *Crew: 32 *Water displacement: 1083 m³ *Tonnage: 723 BRT *Engine: 749 kW (1014 hp) *Speed under engine: 11 knots *Speed under sail: 16.5 knots *Passengers for daytrips: 120 max *Passengers multi-day trips: 58 max *Cabins for 2/4 persons: 13 *Cabins for 3/6 persons: 1 *Building cost: approximately €10 million Image:StadAmsterdam2.jpg|Stad Amsterdam (aft) (Baltimore 2008) Image:Stad_Amsterdam_in_Kristiansand.jpg|Stad Amsterdam (Kristiansand 2010) File:Amsterdam Sail 2010 0819 Stad Amsterdam 02.jpg|Stad Amsterdam (Amsterdam 2010) file:Tall Ship races Harlingen 2014 - Stad Amsterdam.jpg|Start tallship races 2014 (Harlingen) file:Stad Amsterdam 13c.JPG File:Stad Amsterdam 46c.JPG 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stad Amsterdam」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
