Old training ship, now a Museum ship, ARA 'Presidente Sarmiento' in 'Puerto Madero', Buenos Aires, under a dense fog.


ARA Presidente Sarmiento is a museum ship in Argentina, originally built as a training ship for the Argentine Navy. She is considered to be the last intact cruising training ship from the 1890's. The ship was originally built for the Argentine Naval Academy. ARA Presidente Sarmiento made thirty seven annual training cruises including six circumnavigations of the globe. The ship was retired as a seagoing vessel in 1938, but continued to serve without sails on Argentine rivers around 1950 and as a stationary training ship until 1961. She is now maintained in her original 1898 appearance as a museum ship in Puerto Madero near downtown Buenos Aires.
