During the First World War, Germany unleashed a remarkable ship on the world’s oceans — SMS Seeadler, a sailing vessel turned commerce raider commanded by the charismatic Count Felix von Luckner. Unlike most naval captains of his era, von Luckner waged a war of manners: sinking enemy ships without loss of life, capturing hundreds of prisoners, and conducting his campaign under full sail in an age dominated by steam and steel.
In this video, we explore the extraordinary story of the Seeadler and her “gentleman pirate” captain — from their daring escapes through the Atlantic, to the ship’s dramatic wreck in the Pacific and von Luckner’s incredible adventures that followed. Discover how one man’s chivalry and daring made him one of the most legendary figures of maritime warfare.
Oceanliner Designs explores the design, construction, engineering and operation of history’s greatest vessels– from Titanic to Queen Mary and from the Empress of Ireland to the Lusitania. Join maritime researcher and illustrator Michael Brady as he tells the stories behind some of history's most famous ocean liners and machines!
