1:30pm and as snoozing sales men and taxi drivers shock themselfs off after some dahboard cusine and got ready to get back to the daily grind, Piercing the horizon was a pillar of white as the S/S Statsraad Lehmkuhl approached the Irish coast. Laden down with a full camera bag I hicked out to the Dublin bay landmark of Poolbeg Lighthouse, only to watch in horror as the ship dissapered behind Houth head. After a quick call to the Dublin Port Authoity I decided to wait out as the ship was not docking in Dublin untill 4pm. After spending three hours at poolbeg lighthouse eventually the sleek white lady mad her grand entrance into the port.

The Statsraad Lehmkuhl is a three-masted barque rigged sail training vessel based in Bergen, Norway serving as a school ship for the Royal Norwegian Navy.
It was built in 1914 as a school training ship for the German merchant marine under the name Grossherzog Friedrich August. After the First World War the ship was taken as a prize by the United Kingdom and in 1921 the ship was bought by former cabinet minister Kristoffer Lehmkuhl (hence the name, which means ‘Cabinet Minister Lehmkuhl’). With the exception of the Second World War, when she was captured by German troops and called Westwärts, the ship has belonged to Bergens Skoleskib until it was donated to the Foundation in 1978.
