Training ships

Training ships are vessels specifically designed to teach and train sailors, cadets, and midshipmen at naval academies or maritime training institutions. On training ships, students learn practical skills essential for navigation, maneuvering, and operating a vessel at sea.

Historically, training ships played a crucial role in the formation, development, and expansion of both merchant and military navies. From the golden age of sailing ships to the present day, they have trained countless generations of sailors, strengthening maritime capabilities and global influence.
