I'm so proud of this ship. I've never been much for national pride but the way this project reaches back into our history, and doing it as a way of reaching out to the whole world, it almost makes me a bit teary eyed. I've only the greatest admiration and gratitude for those who've participated in it.

Wonderful clip! As I live in Gothenburg I get to see her when she's not out sailing. She is absolutely beautiful!
I visited this replica ship when I was 7 years old when it docked in Porth Elizabeth harbour. So wonderful to be reminded of this beautiful ship 13 years later!

Thx for upload. An excellent documentary on a tremendous ship. A relief following the calm & focused team. Interviewer as sailors. No sensational fuss.. Definitely visit this beauty next time in Göteborg. Respekt Sverige 🙏
Modern Vikings. Vikings didn’t just raid. They also explored and traded. That Captain if you put him in an outfit from back then would probably fit in fine lol.
Build a ship like this in only 18 months, about 300 years ago sounds really fast.

I would be happy to walk the plank, if the shore was near & water not cold.
The keeling is even and the rigging is good. An awesome achievement of mixed technology..
The Bark Endeavour Replica was launched in 1993.
I would love to have the pleasure to see and visit her. She is a beauty and unique.

She is a beauty but not unique.
She should meet our own perfect replica of Captain Cook's Barque Endeavour.
Wow. That was a very hungry diver!
Been a big admirer of tall ships for close to half a century now but how does the Götheborg truly replicate the voyages of its namesake with all the modern equipment on board, not least of which are engines for propulsion?

The engines are there to make sure the ship can get out of trouble if needed. AFAIK 99% of the time the engines aren't used and the ship is powered by her sails only, just like in the old days. Same thing with for example radar on board. How do you replicate the empty oceans of 200 years ago today? You can't so instead you need radar to avoid collisions. Doesn't take anything away from the sailing experience in my opinion.

I'm pretty sure that vessels over a certain size (tonnage) are required to have on board, the means to avoid collisions, call emergencies, plot and report position.

It must have a radar to comply with the internation safety laws regarding sailings ship. Many replicas of various ships have been built but many can't leave the dock since they dont comply with the safety laws.

Dude, they literally said in the video that there is a shit ton of replica ships but they can't just sail to China because of safety regulations. That's all I got to say since the people before me already pointed out everything else that can be said about this matter.

Hold up! Isn't PewDiePie from Gothenburg? I take it that Götheborg is an earlier version of the name Gothenburg.

Göteborg is the swedish name for Gothenburg, and Götheborg is the old spelling

They tow the constitution out and sail for an hour or so, it's a completely different thing to go out on the high seas and sail around the globe! But she's still pretty.
