Topsail schooner Eric Borgman
Later renamed the Port Bougainville, after his Florida real estate in Key Largo, the Eric Borgman was Fritz Scharenberg’s 175 ft topsail schooner.
In an earlier blog post, I mentioned that i had spent a few years sailing the Eric Borgman across the Atlantic and up the east coast of the US. Several crew members got in touch in the comments, and stories where told – it makes interesting reading: The Cutty Sark and Cape Town
Thanks for the photo Mike, hope to see the rest one day soon.


Sailed on her in the Mediterrainian in 1980 , where is she now ?
