maaaslo Posted March 24, 2013 Share #245 Posted March 24, 2013 would this count? she was a real ship, altough you cannot really say her name or distinguish what she was from just this picture. if it is too hard let me know and i will name her and find a different one. she was french, and in her times she was top tech...

TRJ Posted March 25, 2013 Share #249 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Hi Pav, Molasses, could you provide the source for the drawing for the white ship. Is it original? Thanks Tjeerd Edited March 25, 2013 by TRJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molasses Posted March 25, 2013 Share #250 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Tjeerd: just google "White Ship Disaster 1120". I don't recall seeing any contemporary paintings or tapestries showing people on ships in proportion so I don't believe the drawing was contemporary, but it is consistent with contemporary art depicting the disaster.

molasses Posted March 25, 2013 Share #254 Posted March 25, 2013 Not Bristol or Conny. Only a "Blackwall Frigate" by the very loosest interpretation of that description.

st george Posted March 25, 2013 Share #256 Posted March 25, 2013 Looks like The Euterpe. Now called the Star of India and docked in San Diego. I believe she is the oldest active sailing ship.

molasses Posted March 25, 2013 Share #258 Posted March 25, 2013 Well done, st george. The photo showed the name Star of India (which I retouched out) near the bow, but the photo was taken before the rig was changed to a barque. This photo is the only I found of Euterpe/Star of India with a stern gallery. Earlier photos of Euterpe (before 1901) don't show a stern gallery and those after the rig change (in 1906) also don't show it. Had hoped that detail would throw you all off. I know the San Diego Maritime Museum claims Star of India as the oldest active sailing vessel in the world, but they have to exclude Constitution from that list, somehow. She was built in 1863 from iron, one of the first. Since naval architects and ship wrights didn't know how much iron to use to substitute for the familiar wood framing and sheathing, Euterpe was overbuilt compared to similar iron ships built just a few years later - no doubt a major contributing factor to her longevity. It's your turn, st george. trippwj 1 Quote Current Builds: ESMERALDA Chilean Navy School Ship, 1/640 in a bottle insanity Dan Clapp's hard water race boat in a bottle Completed Build: Prairie Schooner OGALLALA 1/96 in a bottle Research Project: Cruizer-class Brig-Sloops "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." - Benjamin Franklin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
