peveka Posted August 29, 2019 #3 Posted August 29, 2019 Very interesting. I just finished Palin's book on the Erebus and can't but wonder why there is a model of the Terror but not of the flagship of the expedition. Anyone has an idea why? The book is brilliant btw. Cheers Pieter mtaylor 1 Some much wood so little time ... Current builds: Nulli Cedo, an 18th century Dutch war clog, HMS Bellona

timboat Posted October 9, 2019 #7 Posted October 9, 2019 I wonder if they can raise her like the Wasa. That would be incredible. Excavate and extract as much stuff as possible probably over a decade and then bring her back up and put her in a museum. mtaylor 1
