DSiemens Posted March 20, 2013 Share #1 Posted March 20, 2013 I saw this picture on a SIB blog and wondered if any one knows which ship or type of ship this is? It just looks really cool and i may put it on my list of ships to build but I would like to research it a bit further.

st george Posted March 20, 2013 Share #2 Posted March 20, 2013 Daniel, It looks like the Mary Rose. A Carrack type ship from the days of Henry VIII. David Quote David Current Build : HMAV Bounty - Amati Next Build : 18th Century Longboat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSiemens Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share #3 Posted March 20, 2013 I looked at the history and some other pictures I think your right. I've put it on my list of ships to build. I love the lateen sails stacked on top of each other I've never seen that before. I don't know who the bottler was either but they certainly did an incredible job. I believe this is a ship in a maritime museum in Germany.

Cristiano Posted March 20, 2013 Share #4 Posted March 20, 2013 There was a ship hydentical to the photo and was called "Great Harry". It was a kit made from Mantua several years ago, but of course not in a bottle! If you search with Google with "Great Harry ship" as keywords, you will find various images. Frankly I don't know if it was a ship really existed or a partly fictious one.

AnobiumPunctatum Posted March 20, 2013 Share #5 Posted March 20, 2013 It's an old interpretation of an carrack, perhaps the "Great Harry" or another ship of the fleet of king Henry.

maaaslo Posted March 20, 2013 Share #6 Posted March 20, 2013 and it doesnt look like it is in the bottle. i would say the bottle is standing in front of it? but i might just see ghosts..
