The "SAIL 2015" is about to start and DOC is equipped with front row seats to this five day event.
On August 12th at 12 o'clock the SAIL 2015 will be officially started with the so-called Sail-in – almost all of the participating 300 historical ships and windjammers will parade on the River Weser including the "Alexander von Humboldt II" as leader of the parade.
Every five years Bremerhaven is hosting this international festival of windjammers, looking forward to celebrate this huge event with friends from all over the world.
Since DOC is located at the new harbor where the majority of the windjammers will be moored we right in the middle of the action. Therefore, we are looking forward to welcoming clients and business partners to a cup of coffee providing the opportunity to enjoy the special atmosphere from the roof top terrasse at the t.i.m.e.Port III office building. Limited parking is available.
The first windjammers have arrived – here the Norwegian "Statsraad Lehmkuhl“ which was actually build at Joh. C. Tecklenborg dockyard in Bremerhaven as sail training ship for the German Navy as „Grossherzog Friedrich August“ in 1914.
