The Tovarishch story actually started back in the 1930s in Nazi Germany.
The famous Tovarishch sailed into Tyneside for essential repair works, only two years after the Ukrainian vessel had won the hearts of the region as one of the stars of the 1993 Tall Ships race.
A German charity offered to renovate her and the government development agency English Partnerships helped fund work to get the Tovarishch fit enough to limp back to Germany.
