She was conceived in the mind of an American philanthropist as the embodiment of his lifetime quest for the perfect schooner yacht. She was launched in a shipyard in Kiel, Germany, owned by the controversial Krupp family. She became embroiled in a monumental scandal involving the mishandling of construction contracts for Pearl Harbor’s defence. She starred in the Cinerama movie “South Seas Adventure”. She spent decades as a floating school for oceanography and high school students.
