One & All
The flagship of South Australia, the One & All was built in
1985 to celebrate the state’s 150th year since colonisation.
She blends the traditional brigantine style of the nineteenth
century, with modern safety, navigation and communication
technology – giving young Australians a unique opportunity
to learn new skills aboard a traditional sailing ship. Members
of the public are welcome to come on deck during the
Festival and see this beautiful vessel up close.
