The schooner Thö Pa Ga was build in 1924 at the shipyard of the brothers Navarro in Aguilas, Spain, and named Tres Hermanos (The Three Brothers). Since the year 2000 the ship was based in Ibiza.

It is a beautiful 42 metre vessel that was part of the CaraMed fleet due to make the journey to Brest 2008. It bears the beautiful Tibetan name Thö Ga Pa, “he who listens with delight” and was christened by its owner and inhabitant for the past 35 years, Gerald Delgado, joined 10 years later by Nicole Legler.
Bound for Brest 2008, an event they have been trying to reach since the festival began, the ship sank on July 8th off Ile de Sein in a matter of minutes, probably as a result of impact with an unidentified floating object.

The associaton Sauvez la goélette THÖ PA GA (Save the schooner Thö Pa Ga) can be reached trough the website www.thopaga.es. The objective is to locate the schooner and see what state it is in and then refloat it as soon as possible, before the autumn.
