The 97 year-old "Loveen" was launched last October after a two-year restoration project carried out by crew of Galway Hooker Sailing Club.
It'll set off next week to join an international flotilla near Amsterdam for the Nawaka national water camp - alongside 40 members of the Port of Galway Sea Scouts.
