RS1 COLIN ARCHER’S HISTORY

‘RS1 Colin Archer’ ended Winner over All in the Cutty Sark Tall Ships’ Race in 1983, leaving 74 ships behind. Also designed by Archer, the ‘RS10 Christiania’ ended second, and the Stephansen/Archer design ‘RS5 Liv’ came third. That this was no coincidence was proved in the next race in 1987, when the ‘RS1 Colin Archer’ again ended Winner over All and ‘RS10 Christiania’ was second best again. In 1993 ‘RS1 Colin Archer’ ended Winner over All for the third time, and also took home the highest price of the Cutty Sark Tall ships’ Races, The Cutty Sark Trophy.

Knut von Trepka (born 1940) is still in business as captain of the vessel. In 2011 his son Christian von Trepka (born 1967) and former crew Tor Erling Gransaether (born 1966) was also appointed skippers by the owner, the Norwegian Maritime Museum.

In the Easter 2013, “RS1 Colin Archer” caught a severe fire, but fortunately not more than a matter of rebuilding. After 12 months of repair and restauration at Maritime Center Fredrikstad AS, the boat was under sail again in the summer of 2014. As a true comeback after the fire, RS1 Colin Archer participated in the 4-days Tall Ships Race regatta from Harling, The Netherlands to Fredrikstad, Norway, winning both her class and the “Over All”-trophy, with more than 2 hours margine to the second.

Keeping ‘RS1 Colin Archer’ in the water preserves for future generations not only the ship, but also the knowledge of how to sail her.
