Johanna Lucretia

The Johanna Lucretia is a British tall ship and is an oak wooden two masted topsail schooner built at the Rhoos Shipyard, Ghent in Belgium in 1945.

Although originally built as a fishing vessel, the Johanna Lucretia was never used for that purpose and was converted for recreational use in 1954, by the then owner Ber van Meer.

In 1989 the Johanna Lucretia was sold and transferred her base to Plymouth in the United Kingdom under the ownership of Mrs. Heather Henning.

The Johanna Lucretia was seized by British Waterways for non-payment of dues at Gloucester Docks[1][2][3][4][5] and, although there was interest from a Johanna Lucretia Sailing Trust,[6] she was purchased for private use and was to remain in Gloucester Docks during the winter months of 2008-09 while undergoing a refit.

[7] Johanna Lucretia was the 2012 Tall Ship Races Class B Overall winner on corrected time.
