Breum was Danish built in 1925 for use as a sailing fishing vessel in the North Sea. She is 50 tons single-skin oak planks on oak frames with 50mm planking and wrought-iron fastened.
In 1980 a German businessman converted her to a pleasure boat in Kiel and in the 1990’s she was based in Tonga for bird research.
From 1995 she has been owned locally and undergone a major restoration, re-planking and fastening/recaulking program. A new but traditional interior, electrics, electronics and power now ensure ongoing usefulness of this vessel.
Breum has also been re-rigged but retains her gaff ketch cutter headsail configuration with tan coloured sails.
