Description
The ARC Gloria (IMO 8642555) is a three-masted barque. She is a training ship and official flagship of the Colombian Navy.
The Colombian Government authorized its navy to acquire a training ship in 1966. A contract was signed with the Spanish shipyard Celaya of Bilbao in October 1966, and began to be fulfilled in April 1967. The ship was commissioned on 7 September 1968 with the vessel moored at the wharf of Deusto Channel.
The ship's name is a reference to the national anthem, Oh gloria inmarcesible (O Unfading Glory).
