Last commercial cargo sailing ship in Europe
I have tagged "she was the last sailing ship carrying commercial cargo in Europe." This is a big claim, bearing in mind the extent of Europe - perhaps true for NW europe. But needs a source anyway. Davidships (talk) 12:44, 30 November 2017 (UTC)
 * False claim. See the Tres Hombres and Tres_Hombres_(schip) --Stunteltje (talk) 14:18, 1 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks Stunteltje. I have removed the claim from the lead and qualified it in the text. It was widely reported at the time and it was possibly true in 1996.  Tres Hombres and Nordlys only began their cargo-carrying voyages in 2009 and 2017 respectively. Davidships (talk) 00:10, 2 December 2017 (UTC)
