Christian Radich
Christian Radich is a three-masted, full-rigged steel ship built in 1937 at the Framnæs shipyard in Sandefjord, Norway. Named after the shipowner whose donation funded her, she served as a Norwegian merchant navy training ship from launch until 1998, and gained worldwide fame through the 1958 film Windjammer and BBC's The Onedin Line.
