trippwj Posted March 26, 2013 Share #271 Posted March 26, 2013 Kevin - Because of the length of the bowsprit and jbboom on many clippers, the jibboom was rigged to be retracted at wharf side to avoid entanglement r damage from wagons and carts passing by.

Anja Posted March 26, 2013 Share #273 Posted March 26, 2013 Hello Wayne, This one was easy. It's the steamer Tremont. Hope you feel better soon! Take care, Anja Quote Those we loved but lost are no longer where they were, but are always where we are.

trippwj Posted March 26, 2013 Share #274 Posted March 26, 2013 Dang - that was an easy one I guess! I figured an obscure old steamer built where my better half was born and raised would take a tad longer than that! Yep - Steamer Tremont being lanuched in Brewer, Maine in 1895 for the Bangor and Bar Harbor Steam Boat Company. Thanks for the good wishes, Anja - and now you get to post the next one!

Anja Posted March 26, 2013 Share #275 Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Thanks Wayne, The title of the picture gave it away. Here is mine. She was named, renamed and underwent modernization.

trippwj Posted March 26, 2013 Share #276 Posted March 26, 2013 The Brazilian Battleship Aquidabã (Aquidaban), renamed after the rebellion in 1894 to Dezesseis de Abril (16th of April) and then to Vinte e Quatro de Maio (24th of May) before being renamed to her original name in 1900.

Anja Posted March 26, 2013 Share #277 Posted March 26, 2013 Wayne, you are right. Congratulations. It is indeed the Aquidaban in 1885. This picture is from 1897. It's your turn again .....

Anja Posted March 27, 2013 Share #290 Posted March 27, 2013 Hello St George, Jan was just replying to the name Wayne gave.

maaaslo Posted March 27, 2013 Share #291 Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) dear players. picture of the mysterious ship i have posted is not See Adler. However, the page i took it from has got title Monkbarns or See-adler... so in this case, we could take this answer as correct, as these ships aparently lookd almost identical. source of the picture here: http://monkbarns.wordpress.com/tag/captain-james-donaldson/ source that winner probably found here: http://monkbarns.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/a-sailors-life-28-monkbarns-or-see-adler-1917/ as you can see, ships look identical, i would say the pictures are the same. but the real ships were not the same. one of them was German raider, the other was the British sailing ship Monkbarns, circa 1918. German ship probably was built to look like british to slip through blockade... so all in all, Trippwj, your turn...

trippwj Posted March 27, 2013 Share #292 Posted March 27, 2013 Would it be the Monkbarns? Quote WayneNeither should a ship rely on one small anchor, nor should life rest on a single hope.Epictetus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maaaslo Posted March 27, 2013 Share #293 Posted March 27, 2013 as i mentioned in my post, monkbarns was the ship i meant in my turn. but since there were two possibilities, i have to accept See Adler too...
