Everyone can sail with Christian Radich. Sailing with us is a
positive challenge, both physically and mentally, and it is a unique
opportunity to experience one of the world’s most famous wind -
jammers. On board you will find new friends from various
countries. Christian Radich has had trainees from up till 13
na tions on one leg - a truly international crew!
As trainee, you will participate in the duties on board according to
your own condition and interests. No previous knowledge is re-
quired in order to join this historical ship. We hope we can sail
quite much, but the weather may force us to use engine on parts of
the voyage. Everyone will join in on the duties; however it is not
mandatory to enter the rig. During calm seas, trainees often learn
knots, sailing skills and other seamanship.
To join a voyage, the age limit is 15 years old (on departure date),
12 years when sailing with parents. For participants over 70, a
medical certificate of fitness must be presented. There is no upper
age limit, but you must be fit enough to actively participate in
some of the work on board.
Join the Christian Radich voyages and prepare for a life changing
experience!

Oslo-Bergen via Farsund: June 26th – July 1st
The first jubilee voyage starts in Oslo and proceeds south around
the Norwegian coastline and up to Bergen. Southwards, we will
sail through Skagerrak – perhaps as far as getting a glimpse of
Denmark, before setting course for Farsund. This lovely town has a
proud maritime history. Whilst the ship is open for tourists and
residents of Farsund, the trainees will experience a guided tour to
Lista’s beautiful beaches. In the evening we will continue our voy-
age to Bergen via spectacular coastal areas from Jæren to Bergen.
Bergen-Tromsø: July 2nd – 9th
During the voyage to Tromsø, we will pass through Norway’s
spectacular coastal areas. The fjords, islands and mountains are
strikingly beautiful. Trainees can expect some good sailing as we
approach the Helgeland archipelago in the north. Here are photo
subjects on the assembly line, and we may meet the impressive sea
eagles on our way.
Next is Lofoten, which is one of Norway’s most impressive areas
with majestic mountain walls rising up from the sea and the mid-
night sun! Depending on the weather and safety considerations,
the captain will decide on the route through this spectacular land -
scape, to ensure that the trainees will have a memorable experi-
ence. After Lofoten, we pass Vesterålen, Andøya and the island of
Senja, before we end in Tromsø - a city famous for its nightlife.
During summer, the sun shines all night long!
During this voyage, we will include as much sailing as we possibly
can according to weather and safety considerations. There are
plenty of opportunities for short stops along our way, such as the
glacier Svartisen, Træna, and Trollfjorden.
The voyages 2012
Tromsø - Hammerfest via North Cape: July 11th – 13th
Hammerfest - Tromsø via North Cape: July 15th -17th
Experiencing the true north of Europe is something many have on
their list of desired tourist experiences. During the voyage to
Hammerfest, you will experience just that – including Troms' im-
pressive mountains and Finnmark's remarkable coastline. Imagine
that, being on board the world's most beautiful fully rigged ship
on her 75th anniversary voyage! Our route takes us around Mager-
øya close to Honningsvåg, before we will see the North Cape, the
northernmost point of Europe. In Hammerfest, we will join
another celebration, namely the city's birthday, which is celebrated
the entire week. The leg back from Hammerfest has the same
contents, but we might opt for a slightly different route.
Please note our special offer on combining one of these legs with
the Bergen-Tromsø or Tromsø-Bodø voyages.
Tromsø-Bodø: July 19th – 23rd
The spectacular landscapes of Lofoten, Vestfjorden and Vesterålen
attract tourists from all over the world. We have plenty of time to

investigate this stunning area. Trainees will see numerous islands,
picturesque fishing villages, white sandy beaches and mountains
that rise more than 1000 meters above sea level. You will experi-
ence sailing, tourist experiences and perhaps catching enough fish
to feed everyone on board. Daylight will persist 24/7 and you will
hardly go to sleep, – only have a strong desire for experiencing
more of this fantastic scenery.
We will meet the famous “Hurtigruten” cruise ships several times
along the way - perhaps in the narrow Trollfjorden if we are lucky.
Other remarkable spots include Svolvær, Henningsvær, Værøy and
Røst. According to wind and weather, there might be opportuni-
ties to go ashore.
Bodø-Trondheim: July 25th – Aug. 1st
During this voyage, we have plenty of time to explore Helgeland,
a coastline less crowded than Lofoten, but just as fantastic! Here,
you will see magnificent former fishing villages with many restored
houses that are now used as cottages. There are more islands than
you can count and in the horizon you can spot Træna. This fishing
village has its origin from almost 9000 years ago. Further on, we
find Lovund, Rødøy, Dønna and Vega, and between these famous
spots there are a number of islands with unique bird life. On the
mainland we can observe the glacier Svartisen between the high
mountains. Further south, we can see the famous group of moun-
tains called The Seven Sisters.
We are planning a stop in Brønnøysund, from where we will take a
short bus ride (included) and go for a walk through the hole in the
Torghatten mountain. During our stay ashore there may be other
events on board, but your luggage will be well taken care of.
Towards Trondheim, we look forward to fair winds and much
sailing.
Ålesund - Stavanger, with Jazz concerts
in Haugesund: Aug. 7th-12th
Imagine seeing the west coast of Norway from the world's most
beautiful full-rigged ship on her 75th anniversary-voyage! Hardly
anything can match experiencing the west coast landscape from
Christian Radich - sailing through fjords, passing through small,
picturesque places and having numerous great experiences together
with fellow trainees. We will anchor in Haugesund, at this year's
Sildajazz (“Herring-jazz”), which is one of the largest jazz festivals
in Norway attracting about 50,000 visitors annually!
You can join many free concerts and we will get access to concert
tickets at reasonable prices. During this stay, the ship will go for a
fjord cruise or have visiting tourists on board. You may stay on board
the two nights we are in town - it is included in the price. All trai-
nees can join us on the last day’s fjord cruise across Boknafjorden to
Stavanger, when we also will invite other passengers on board.
Stavanger-Oslo: Aug. 13th -17th
In August, the water is still warm. The summer is coming to an end,
but the coast is still as beautiful and there is plenty to see! Hopefully,
the wind will yield good sailing experiences along the south coast,
also named the Norwegian gold coast due to nice weather conditions
and its charming archipelago. We may see Skagen in Denmark on
the way home or even the Swedish Koster islands. On the way
through the Oslo fjord, we look forward to a warm welcome from
Oslo after an eventful summer.
Sightseeing in the cities
Together with the local tourist offices, we offer exciting excursions in
Bodø, Tromsø, Hammerfest and Trondheim at an extra cost. Tourist
offices will also help you with hotel accommodation if necessary.

Practicalities
Christian Radich can accommodate 80 trainees. Each trainee will be
assigned to one of three watch teams which has 4 hours on duty and 8
hours off - both day and night. Among your duties are lookout, fire-
and safety patrols, sail manoeuvres and steering, all performed under
professional supervision. In particular, the sail manoeuvres are deman-
ding, but very spectacular. Entering the rig is the ultimate event to
many, but it is not mandatory. The trainees sleep either in hammocks or
fixed beds in two comfortable, air-conditioned orlops (dormitories)
below deck. The ship has modern shower facilities, serves 3 excellent
meals per day and has a small slope chest where you may buy souvenirs,
toothpaste, snacks etc.
Special clothing or other equipment is not necessary. Rainwear and
warm, windproof clothes are perhaps the most important things to
remember.
Further information regarding what to bring along
will be sent to you with your trainee handbook after
registration.

Christian Radich is one of the world’s most famous sailing
ships. She was built in 1937 and is celebrating her 75th
anniversary in 2012. Christian Radich sailed as a training
ship until 1998 and almost 17000 Norwegian students have
had their basic marine education on board. The ship is well
known from the movie “Windjammer” (1958) and the
TV series “The Onedin Line” (1971-80).
During summer season, the national pride Christian Radich
offers sail voyages for trainees and school classes.
Teambuilding adventures for companies and private parties
are getting more and more popular. During winter, we sail
for the Norwegian Navy, only interrupted by sail voyages in
Southern Europe. For more information, please see
www.radich.no.
A professional, permanent crew of 15-20 persons will intro-
duce you to life on board the ship and make you familiar
with 1360 m2 of sails and 9.000 meters of rope. They will
also supervise you at sea in order to make your stay on
board Norway’s most magnificent sailing ship a safe and
unique experience.
Changes in schedule and prices
may occur.
