The US Coast Guard Cutter Eagle is home ported at the United States Coast Guard Academy in New London CT. EAGLE, the largest Tall Ship flying the Stars and Stripes and the only square-rigger in U.S. government service, is the seventh Coast Guard Cutter to bear the name in a proud line dating back to 1792. The ship was built in 1936 by the Blohm and Voss Shipyard in Hamburg, Germany, and commissioned as HORST WESSEL. It was taken as a war prize by the United States and a Coast Guard crew -- aided by the German crew still on board -- sailed the tall ship in 1946 from Bremerhaven to its new home port in New London, Connecticut.

Eagle now serves as a seagoing classroom for the future officers of the U.S. Coast Guard. It trains up to 150 cadets or officer candidates at a time. The training these officer candidates receive under sail has proven to be a valuable asset to generations of Coast Guard officers throughout their careers.

The EAGLE has more than 22,000 square feet of sail and five miles of rigging. Over 200 lines control the sails and yards, and every crew member, cadet and officer candidate must become intimately familiar with the name, operation, and function of each line.

EAGLE is has a steel hull four-tenths of an inch thick; two full length steel decks with a platform deck below and a raised forecastle and quarter-deck; and weather decks made of three inch thick teak over steel. It effortlessly and gracefully glides under full sail in the open ocean at speeds up to 17 knots.

When in home port in New London, EAGLE rests alongside a pier on the Thames River at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy. She is open for self guided tours from 8:00 A.M. to sunset. The Academy was originally founded in 1876 and in 1932 a permanent shore facility was established at its present site on land donated by the New London community. Approximately 900 men and women attend the Academy, all of whom sail at one time or another on the United States only active duty square rigger.
