Morning Star Trust is a Christian sail training charity with the primary objective of providing personal development to young people through the adventurous experience of sailing at sea on the 62 ft, traditionally rigged sailing vessel ''Morning Star of Revelation''.〔http://www.xlearning.co.uk/community.html〕 The boat was built by Tim Millward over a period of nine years and was completed in 1981. It is built of ferro-cement steel framed. Although Morning Star came first in its first Tall Ships race it was disqualified because one of the crew members was too young. Morning Star has competed in all of the Tall Ships' Races since including ''Tall Ships Race 2000'' when she crossed the Atlantic. In July 2013 the vessel won the Aarhus to Hesinki Tall Ships race, coming in as the overall winner on corrected time.〔http://www.sailtraininginternational.org/news/article/read_party-atmosphere-for-helsinki-prizes_item_100837.htm〕 The adventure sail training organisation, based in Chatham Historic Dockyard on the River Medway in Kent, England.

In a typical activity in 2004 a crew including five teenagers who had been given bursaries to allow them to take part, sailed Morning Star to Denmark from Chatham in the Tall Ships Race.〔http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/kent/3903343.stm〕 ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Morning Star Trust」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
