Built in 1937, in Hamburg (Germany), the training ship Sagres is the most decorated and the only one to display foreign decorations on its national standard, having made its debut in 1964 in international regattas and in what was also the first transatlantic regatta of large sailing ships.

The Navy Day celebrations also include exhibitions of equipment, concerts, sports, and sea baptisms.
