The tall-ship approached Gozo from the North- West and sailed across the channel to reach Val- letta around sunset, when the 106 cadets and the ship's crew took part in the evocative ensign low- ering ceremony, as per tradition on the Italian na- vy's units. The ship masts were illuminated with the "tricolore", the three colours of the Italian flag. During the night, the ship was scheduled to sail around Malta and continuing the cadets' training in the high seas, heading towards west of Sicily. The training campaign for young cadets started at the end of a first, challenging year at the naval academy. This year's campaign saw the Amerigo Vespucci setting off from the port of Livorno and sailing around the archipelago of La Maddalena, through the strait of Messina and, subsequently, the strait of Sicily. The Amerigo Vespucci and her 'sister' ship Cris- toforo Colombo were designed by marine engi- neer Major Francesco Rotundi, director of the shipyards of Castellammare di Stabia, near Naples in Italy. The ship was launched on 22 February 1931 and, since then, she has always performed her core training activity for the cadets of the Li- vorno Naval Academy.
