Correillo La Palma

The restoration and rehabilitation project under conditions of navigation of the Corre Llo La Palma has its origins in the Commission created in 1996 within the Canarian Association of Merchant Marine Captains to save the ship from scrapping.

The responsibility for this initiative was assumed by the Association for Restoration and Conservation of Corre la La Palma, created for this purpose in December 1997 and which today has about a thousand associates. This promotes and implements the project, establishing its objectives and priority action lines and carrying out decisive work to guarantee its viability and the involvement of the Canarian society in the recovery of this emblematic vessel. From the heart of this Association and as a result of the experience acquired and the technical complexity that the initiative already has, the Corre Llo Canaria Canarian Foundation arises in September 2003, which is constituted in order to have an adequate means for the direction of the execution of the Restoration Project, the collection and management of the necessary funds and the future use of the ship itself. In addition to members of the Association, the Foundation has several Island Councils represented in its Board of Trustees, and exercises this responsibility by virtue of the cessation of the corresponding rights by the Cabildo de Tenerife, owner of the ship. It is registered with the number 193 in the registry of Canary Foundations.
