Sail Training Ship 'Belem'

The French sail training ship Belem was launched in 1896 as a cargo ship transporting sugar from the West Indies and cocoa and coffee from Brazil and French Guiana to Nantes in France. She's now a sail training ship.

She came in to the Sound of Mull just after midday today and is now anchored in Tobermory Bay.
