The Pourquoi Pas was built in St Malo in 1907. According to tradition, the builder was asked by his father why he wanted to study at the seafaring school. The answer was "Because of the sea, why not?". This is where the unusual name comes from.
From 1920 to 1936 the ship explored the French and later the Arctic coast. In 1936 the barque set off on a voyage to Greenland. The ship sank in a storm with 40 men, only one survived.
