One auxiliary diesel engine 500hp. (it looks the engine was later replaced by a stronger engine of 1.100 hp., but when?)

01 September 1921 under command of Captain Lorenz Peters she sailed in ballast to Cardiff were she loaded a cargo of coal for Buenos Aires were she arrived after a passage of 30 days.

Her last voyage for Vinnen in 1936 she made to Argentine, then to South Africa, Australia, Reunion and Seychelles before heading home.
She made two Cape Horn voyages under the flag of Vinnen.

26 August 1936 bought by The Norddeutscher Lloyd in Bremen and converted in a cargo carrying cadet ship, renamed in KOMMODORE JOHNSEN, named after Commodore Johnsen, a well know commodore of the Norddeutscher Lloyd. (JOHNSEN is in some sources given as JOHNSON.)

08 October 1936 sailed from Bremerhaven loaded with coal for Montevideo where she arrived on 06 December after a passage of 58 days.
08 January 1937 sailed from Buenos Aires loaded with wheat bound for Germany, when in the vicinity of the Azores on 01 March she did run in a severe storm with hurricane force wind, during the storm she got a list of 20 degree to port, and after inspection of the cargo holds it was found that the longitudinal bulkhead under hatch no 3 had given away and the cargo had shifted.
The list slowly increased to 50 degrees despite the efforts of the crew to re-trim the cargo
Early in the morning of 03 March a SOS was given, and two vessels in the vicinity replied, the Dutch SLIEDRECHT and the German tanker WINKLER.
After the WINKLER arrived by the stricken vessel, she pumped some oil on the high waves, which decreased the wavehight, and when the weather later improved, the crew got success with re-trimming the cargo.
After thanking the two vessels for their help, the KOMMODORE JOHNSEN preceded her voyage, and 15 days later arrived safely in Hamburg.

During 1939 was she one of the twelve sailing vessels in the last grain race from Australia; she made the passage from Port Lincoln to Falmouth in 107 days.

The SEDOV is a four-masted barque built-in 1921 in Germany. During the Second World War, the barque sailed in the Baltic under the German naval flag. After the war, it was transferred to the USSR as reparation from Germany and renamed in honor of the famous Russian polar explorer G. Ya.Sedov.

The barque made its first voyage under the flag of the USSR in June 1952. In 1981-1991, the SEDOV served as a training vessel for the Baltic Detachment of training vessels of the Zapryba MRH of the USSR. In 1991, the vessel was transferred to the Murmansk State Technical University, a subordinate educational institution of the Federal Agency for Fisheries, from that moment on, future generations of captains, navigators, mechanics, radio operators, and electricians are trained on it.
It is the largest sailing training vessel that has survived to this day, and on this basis, the bark was listed in the Guinness Book of Records in 1993.

From 1992 to 1999, SEDOV participated in regattas held by Cutty Sark, while in 1992 he took second place, in 1994 — third place, and in 1995-first place for the regatta. From 1966 to 2015, the ship made 93 training voyages and repeatedly participated in international regattas, during which the sailboat called at ports in Europe, America, and Africa more than 200 times. In 2006 and 2010, the SEDOV made high-latitude Arctic expeditions, and in 2013, in St. Petersburg, it completed its first circumnavigation of the world. In April 2017, the SEDOV barque was transferred to the Kaliningrad State Technical University and changed its homeport from Murmansk to Kaliningrad. In 2019-2020, he participated in a round-the-world expedition of Rosrybolovstvo sailboats dedicated to the 200th anniversary of the discovery of Antarctica and the 75th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. During the expedition, more than 350 cadets of Rosrybolovstvo educational institutions were trained on the ship.

The postage stamp depicts the barque "SEDOV".
