The first campaign of "Maria"

The schooner glided easily along the water surface of the Dvina and was already approaching its mouth. On the right, there was a fortress of the Livonian Order - an outpost that allows you to control the trade routes from the cities of the Hanseatic League to Riga. Soon the bay, and there the long-awaited freedom. Stajan and his friends were waiting with inner tension for this moment. How many times have they already gone out into the bay, but for the first time - on such a large ship, and new feelings seized them? They stood on the tank and admired the panorama unfolding in front of them.

“How lucky we were that we met Ratibor in the forest. Without his help, we would not have been able to buy a ship,” said Gera, looking thoughtfully at the waters of the Livsky Gulf opening before them.”
