Wooden Boat Plans And Kits
Will Sterling from Tavistock in Devon, kindly sent details of this ships boat which his company built for Nelsons flagship HMS Victory. Victory although kept in dry dock in Portsmouth naval base is still a serving ship in the British Navy.
Will explains "Having studying the ships documents the Curator of HMS Victory realised that a 26 yawl had been part of the 1805 ships complement of boats. In 2008 he determined to have a yawl built."
"Stirling and Son won the tender and built a yawl under MOD contract. The boat was built to a draught of 1797 from Greenwich Maritime Museum."
"She is built of full length planking copper and bronze fastened and is now on display in Portsmouth, alongside HMS Victory, the flagship of the Royal Navy."
If youre visiting England then its really worthwhile to take the time to see HMS Victory (and her neighbouring historic ships Warrior and Mary Rose), and not least Wills fantastic yawl.
