Star Flyer comes to Cartagena

Cartagena has seen plenty of activity this week on the cruise front, Tuesday we saw the Oceana and Thursday it was the more traditional Star Flyer a 4 masted 360 foot sailing clipper. This magnificent yacht is a pleasure to see and when they set sail there was even token gesture of some sail as she ghosted out of the harbour. The vessel can caters for 170 guests with 75 crew, giving a totally different experience to the modern cruise liners that look more like a block of flats rather than the traditional older ships with more elegant lines. Star Clipper lines have 3 ships altogether with Star Flyer and Star Clipper being sister ships, she now heads off across the Atlantic but we hope to see her again next year.
