Once the hull was made, it was turned upside down and timber plates of narrow wooden strips were fitted using several copper nails. Lapstrake construction is known for producing the strongest hulls, which are much lighter in weight, long lasting and need very less maintenance.

  • Maritime Culture in an Inland Lake?

    Maritime Culture in an Inland Lake?

    Transactions on the Built Environment vol 65, © 2003 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 Maritime culture in an inland lake? C. Westerdahl Museum of Lake Vtinern/NationaE Maritime Museum, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract The definition of maritime culture will be discussed in this paper. The noun mare, and its adjective derivates marinus or maritimus in Latin indeed refer only to the sea. To the author, however, this is only formalist semantics. The only reasonable starting point for a humanistic approach would be the cultural contents of the definition. In this case the salient question would be whether the conditions of the Swedish lake Vanern do resemble the conditions of the salt water coasts and archipelagoes so much that they can be compared with them, or not. The scale of lakes in general would be important. A definite answer to the question is not sought, rather a discussion. The perspective is the Braudelian longue durge. The source material of the analysis will be multidisciplinary, place names, folklore, wrecks and other remnants, the social background of fishing by way of small-scale farmer shipping to a possible ownership and management of larger vessels, maintenance of lighthouses, sea marks etc. The similarities are as important as the peculiarities. Similarities are supposed to introduce the influences of general maritime culture. Peculiarities may show the richness of the local heritage. The mixture of these two gives the balance. Some emphasis will be put on the ritual landscape with its manysided evidence since this is one of the latest research areas of the author. 1 Introduction The aim of this paper is to explore whether the maritime aspects of the large Swedish inland lake Vanern, the third largest of Europe, would be enough to characterize them as a maritime culture in their own right.

This project introduces wooden boat building techniques and methods but without the time commitment and cost of building a full size boat. Building this simple and unique toolbox is easier than building a small scale mod- el of a boat because it is larger in scale than a model, has Folk School Fairbanks 3 fewer parts than a model, and above all you don't have to decide on a boat design. The glued lap construction method is arguably the fast- est, strongest method for building a light, stiff, and round displacement hull. We will use modern epoxy and lightweight marine plywood. Marine plywood is stronger and more stable than straight grained lumber from old growth forests of yore. The epoxy joint between the planks is stronger and stiffer than clench nailing or rivet- ing. Glued lapstrake construction is free from internal ribs and frames, yet retaining the elegance of boats built in the 1890's and early 1900's. This introduction to glued lap construction is intended to allow you to create a unique toolbox you can use to proudly carry your tools to the next boat building class in your future! Tools we will use: Low angle block plane with lap bevel guide Back saw or fine toothed pull saw 1/2 inch chisel Random Orbital Sander (Makita 2 amp or better) Ziploc bag to col- lect sanding dust for epoxy putty 8 oz.

She is log-built with carvel-fitted rising planks, a longhead bow, sharp stem, and a beam of 6'4-3/4". Her sailing rig consists of two masts with adjustable rake that carry a foresail, mainsail, and larg~ jib. Instead of the normal sprits she is the only vessel in the racing fleet to carry "wishbones," or double sprits. Built in 1942 by Oliver Duke, PATRICIA gains her significance for being one of the last 22 surviving Chesapeake Bay racing log canoes that carry on a tradition of racing on the Eastern Shore of Maryland that has existed since the 1840's.

We are pleased to be able to bring more articles from varied contributors from within the membership, looking at subjects associated with the heart of our society. I find these fascinating and would encourage others to come forward and develop their ideas for the wider audience. Phil Cox, Chairman Desperately Seeking Secretary Many of you will know Sian King, our current Secretary who has brought order to our midst and doubtless hassled and harangued members for their renewal subscriptions as well as providing an excellent administrative service to the committee. Sian is standing down and we are desperately seeking somebody to fill her shoes. We intend to split the role, so that we are looking for a ‘Secretary’ to run the administration of the charity and to act as minute-taker. In addition, we are seeking a Membership Secretary to run the database, chase subscriptions, and distribute newsletters and other official papers as agreed by the committee. If you have the time and the inclination to undertake either or both of these roles, please get in touch with me at [email protected]. I have to say that Sian will be sorely missed at committee and I anticipate that she will continue to advertise the Newport Medieval Ship project through her other works.

Shipbuilding and the English International Timber Trade, 1300-1700: a framework for study using Niche Construction Theory Jillian R. Smith Abstract: Much scholarship has been undertaken with regards to the evolution of the European shipbuilding traditions and their physical changes, but few explanations for the changes are given. This paper seeks to identify the correlations between the expansion of the English timber trade in the fourteenth to seventeenth centuries and the changes in shipbuilding at the time, thereby creating a framework for future study of this correlation and its possible relatedness using Niche Construction Theory as a framework. Directions the research can take and the data needed are the focus of this work. English trade has long been dependent upon the sea as the main thoroughfare for goods traveling to and from the island. Boats and ships of various sizes, shapes, and varieties have in tum, until the last century with airplanes and the Channel Tunnel, been the primary means of leaving England for any purpose.

Västergarn Boat Rivets in Context, Case study: The Missing Boatyard Koehler, Richard (2020). Skeppsnitar och båtvarv i Västergarn. En kontextuell fallstudie Gotland has a rich material cultural heritage from the Stone Age to the Middle Ages thanks to the island's strategic location in the middle of the Baltic Sea; especially true for the Viking Age when Gotlanders had extensive trade contacts with the east dating from the mid 12th century and Gotland’s economy was dominated by such contacts. This essay deals with Gotland's maritime infrastructure and its development between about 1100 and 1400 based on a case study of boat rivets from the medieval settlement of Västergarn. The study focus is on Västergarn’s emergence as a maritime community on Gotland's west coast, and if Västergarn had the opportunity to decide its own economy, i.e., to control its’ external contacts and internal trade with the rest of Gotland? What role did maritime traffic play in Västergarn economy? Is it possible to draw conclusions about site maritime organization and infrastructure based on the extensive rivet material? What supply chains with the surrounding area may have existed that made such activity possible? What professional skills and knowledge were in place? In the analytical part of the dissertation a classification system for Västergarn's rivet material is established and discussed in comparison with other literature on boat building technology from the rest of Scandinavia, in particular the Baltic Sea area.

Having lost three ships to hurricane on his second voyage, Columbus—who had possessed the foresight to bring shipwrights with him to the settlement of Isabela—had the 50-ton caravel Santa Cruz constructed from their broken timbers in the summer of 1495. Designed as a sister ship to Niña (who had successfully weathered the storm), she was quickly given the appropriate moniker India by her Spanish seamen, and safely reached Cádiz a year later on 11 June 1496 (Morrison 1942: 491; Phillips and Phillips 1992: 211).
