	Sail training - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		By 1900 most commercial sailing vessels were struggling to turn a profit in the face of competition from more modern steam ships which had become efficient enough to steam shorter great circle routes between ports instead of the longer trade wind routes used by sailing ships.
		While many countries of the world operated sailing ships as training vessels for officers in their Merchant Marine in the 1920’s and 30’s, several sailing ship owners such as Carl Laeisz and Gustav Erickson determined that there was still a profit to be made from the last of the sailing ships.
		While the summer race series are the pinnacle of the sail training experience, most maritime nations have government, private and charitably funded ships preserving the ways of seamen from a time gone by, helping the youth and the “young at heart” find themselves and working somewhere off their coasts on short trips year round.

		In 2002, as a result of reorganization of the ISTA it was renamed the Sail Training International.
		As operation of a big sailing ship requires substation expenditures, and the funds supplied by the SMA and the Department of Sea Transport do not cover all the costs of operation the "Mir" has to combine its usual activities with commercial ones, thus earning necessary sums.
