REGINA was originally built in Damgarten (DDR Germany) in 1949 as a fishing cutter.

She was used as fishing cutter of the fishing trawl fleet in Uekermunde (between Rostock and Stettin) called UEK65 (NEURUPPIN).

The ship operated as a 56ft Oostsee fishing cutter until 1978.

These cutters were very famous for their seaworthiness.

Despite the heavy construction, they glide smoothly over waters. This is because of the shape of the underwater ship that has not changed since the 19th century. Long used for sailing ships with long keel S-shaped carveel construction.

REGINA is built with 2.4inch oak planks on oak ribs of 4-8 inches.

In 1990, the current owner bought the ship and named her REGINA. The original SKL engine was replaced by a DAF 1160 engine and new fuel tanks were installed.

Only after 2001 the complete restoration and renovation started, which resulted in the conversion to this magnific classic sailing yacht.

Thirteen years of hard work was spent removing corroded and rusted heavy steel, installing all the new woodwork. Quality Burmese teak came from an old demolished wooden minesweeper.

The onderwater ship and corridors have been repaired and replaced at the famous Bultjerwerft in Ditzum Germany. Also new are the heavy oak bulwarks and bollards. In 2006 the new mast foundation was installed at Bultjer shipyard and mast and bowsprit were installed. Then the reconstruction of the superstructure began. In 2014 this resulted in this beautiful classic two-masted sailing cutter.
