| Source measurement | Cisne Branco is the third Brazilian Navy sail-training yacht to carry this famous name. The first Cisne Branco was the classic 15-metre (49 ft) wooden yacht Tritonia , which was designed by the legendary naval architect Alfred Mylne , and built by Alexander Robertson & Sons in 1910. The yacht arrived in Brazil in 1978, and after extensive repairs undertook an extended 8-month voyage across the Atlantic. The second Cisne Branco (25 m, 83 ft), which had an aluminium hull, was used by the navy between 1980 and 1986 after which it was passed on to a naval college.[source]Cisne Branco · Previous vessels of the same name; only the objects and conditions stated in this passage | — |
