She was built, as a herring lugger under the name De Vrouw Maria, in 1919. In 1927, she was lengthened by {{convert|7|m}} and converted into a motor fishing vessel. She was renamed Morgenster in 1959 and continued to be used as a fishing vessel until 1970. After a period of use for sport fishing and in the pirate radio business, she was acquired by her current owners for conversion back to a sailing vessel in 1983. She made her maiden voyage as a sail training ship in 2008, having been refitted as a brig.[1][2] GalleryReferences1. ^1 2 {{cite web | url = http://www.falmouthtallships.co.uk/ship/morgenster/ | title = Morgenster | publisher = Falmouth Tall Ships Regatta 2014 | accessdate = 25 August 2016}} 2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web | url = http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2183720 | title = Morgenster - IMO 5241659 | work = shipspotting.com | accessdate = 25 August 2016}}
