Hull
Vessel is full keel, round bottom with clipper style schooner bow and canoe stern. Hull design is, swept sheer with raised
bulwarks.
Originally built in 1947 as a Dutch, North Sea Fishing Trawler, the vessel's hull construction was accomplished via the reutilization of steel and steel plating that was taken from the hulls of the German U Boat fleet that had been delivered to
Holland as war reparations at the end of the Second World War. Hence the steel plating which makes up the hull from the
collision bulkhead aft is of high nickel-brass content. This part is constructed of riveted steel plates overlapped over
fabricated structural steel ribs spaced 45 centimeters (approx1. 17") on center; with stringers and re-enforced by welded
steel bulkheads. All repairs to the riveted portions of the hull have been in accordance with US Coast Guard and Transport
Canada general repair guidelines.
Sails and Rigging
Gaff-rigged, square topsail schooner w/ seven rigged sails and four special purpose sails. Steel masts with wooden
topmasts. Sails tailor-made for Unicorn by United Baltic Sails (UB Sails), The Netherlands.

History
Unicorn's sturdy hull was crafted in Holland in 1947 from steel salvaged from German U-boats. She was launched as a
motor fishing vessel working the North Atlantic. By 1979 she had been converted into a sailing ship and renamed Eenhorn
or "one horn", Dutch for Unicorn. In 1986, under new owners, she crossed the Atlantic to the United States and her name
was anglicized to Unicorn. For the next decade, Unicorn was a charter ship familiar to sailors from the northern Maritime
Provinces to the southernmost Caribbean islands and as far west as Australia. In the mid-90's Unicorn was acquired by a
Canadian couple and went through a major rebuilding of the hull, rig and systems to be converted into a Canadian certified
sail training vessel. In 1997 she was launched with a new name, True North of Toronto, and new specifications. Hundreds
of sailors trained aboard her in the Great Lakes, along the east coast and in the Caribbean. She became an American Sail
Training Association "event" tallship and began appearing with the ASTA fleet at port festivals. In the fall of 1999, True
North was acquired by its current owners. Along with their four daughters, they have continued to promote the preservation
of traditional maritime life through tallship festivals, community involvement and sail training programs. In December of
2003, the schooner completed a bow to stern refit that took the ship down to its steel ribs, and has been rechristened with
her original name, Unicorn. With her new first-class accommodations and high end electronics and systems, she has once
again set sail with a new dream and charted course. Since 2007, Unicorn has been sailing under charter with Sisters Under
Sail and sailing as the very popular only all-female crewed tall ship in the world.
Recent Improvements
Current owners provided an extensive re-fit of all systems and accommodations in 2003 at Scotia Trawler, Lunenburg,
Nova Scotia. Plumbing, fresh water, bilge, sanitation, galley and related systems were all replaced and upgraded. A
complete electrical system overhaul was undertaken, upgrading fire and safety systems. New non-opening port-lights were
installed with heavy gauge aluminum hatches.

The vessel was dry-docked in October 2004 at the Heddle Marine Shipyard in Hamilton Ontario and again in fall/winter
2009/2010 at Gloucester Marine Railways. Work performed included removal and maintenance of propeller shaft and
bearing, removal and rebuilding of transmission, removal and repair of steel plating at upper end of rudder post,
replacement of rudder bearings, re-positioning of starboard hawse pipe, removal of through hull fitting forward of engine
room bulkhead (through-hull fittings, port and starboard are now in the engine room), and complete inspection, ultrasoundings and repair of hull after sandblasting to "white metal." Hull was primed with epoxy and painted. Records of these
haul-outs are noted on record with the USCG.Vessel's current main engine, an after cooled, turbo charged Caterpillar
3406 (installed in 1997) had a regularly scheduled top end performed in November of 2003 by factory authorized dealer,
Atlantic Tractor. The Kubota Marathon 12 KVA generator was re-powered in June 2004 by Fort Pierce Diesel. Perkins 46
KVA main generator was brought on line in December of 2003 and its' cooling system upgraded in August 2004.In
addition, between January and March, 2005 additional safety features were added by Embree welding of St. Petersburg,
Fl. These included the re-enforcement of the Engine Room's watertight bulkhead, just aft of the main mast step, the
replacement of 2, six dog manual doors (engine room and mid-ship) with quick acting wheel type doors, the addition of an
on deck fireproof (aluminum) propane locker, the upgrading of deck hatch dogs to stainless steel wing nut types and the
addition of an on deck outboard engine mount.
