Scarlet sails and fireworks in St. Petersburg

At around 2 a.m. a fairytale ship symbolizing an accomplished wish, the Sekret ship from the novel by Alexander Grin, arrived from Lake Ladoga. This year, the Standard sailing ship for the first time failed to be the main hero of the holiday. It turned out that only six ships in the world could play its role and almost a square kilometer of tissue was used on the scarlet sails of the Swedish brig Three Crowns.
