1 Overview of USS Constitution Re-Builds & Restorations USS
Overview of USS Constitution Re-builds & Restorations USS Constitution has undergone numerous “re-builds”, “re-fits”, “over hauls”, or “restorations” throughout her more than 218-year career. As early as 1801, she received repairs after her first sortie to the Caribbean during the Quasi-War with France. In 1803, six years after her launch, she was hove-down in Boston at May’s Wharf to have her underwater copper sheathing replaced prior to sailing to the Mediterranean as Commodore Edward Preble’s flagship in the Barbary War. In 1819, Isaac Hull, who had served aboard USS Constitution as a young lieutenant during the Quasi-War and then as her first War of 1812 captain, wrote to Stephen Decatur: “…[Constitution had received] a thorough repair…about eight years after she was built – every beam in her was new, and all the ceilings under the orlops were found rotten, and her plank outside from the water’s edge to the Gunwale were taken off and new put on.”1 Storms, battle, and accidents all contributed to the general deterioration of the ship, alongside the natural decay of her wooden structure, hemp rigging, and flax sails. The damage that she received after her War of 1812 battles with HMS Guerriere and HMS Java, to her masts and yards, rigging and sails, and her hull was repaired in the Charlestown Navy Yard. Details of the repair work can be found in RG 217, “4th Auditor’s Settled Accounts, National Archives”. Constitution’s overhaul of 1820-1821, just prior to her return to the Mediterranean, saw the Charlestown Navy Yard carpenters digging shot out of her hull, remnants left over from her dramatic 1815 battle against HMS Cyane and HMS Levant.

THE MAPLE PRESS YORK PA GENERAL PREFACE ------------- Preface to Pamphlet, Part I, issued by the United States Shipping Board Emergency Fleet Corporation, for use in its classes in Wood Shipbuilding. This text on wood shipbuilding was prepared by W. H. Curtis, Portland, Oregon, for the Education and Training Section of the Emergency Fleet Corporation. It is intended for the use of carpenters and others, who, though skilled in their work, lack the detail knowledge of ships necessary for the efficient performance of their work in the yard. Sea-going vessels are generally built according to the rules of some Classification Society, and all important construction and fastening details have to be passed upon by the Classification Society under whose inspection the vessel is to be built. Due to this fact, requirements may vary in detail from types of construction here explained. It is hoped, however, that this book may be helpful to shipbuilding classes and to individual men in the yard.

Gunwale (Canoe Rails) Repair Guide Wood Gunwale Repair
Gunwale (Canoe Rails) Repair Guide Wood Gunwale Repair Canoes with fine woodwork are a tradition at Mad River Canoe. The rails, seats and thwarts on your Mad River Canoe are native Vermont straight-grained ash, chosen for its resiliency, strength and aesthetic appearance. Unlike aluminum or plastic materials, white ash will not kink upon impact and cause undue damage to the canoe hull. There are more options involved in repair of wood gunwales than with vinyl or aluminum, making this section a bit longer than the corresponding instructions for other types of rails. Don't let the length of this document intimidate you - here's an overview of this section to help you plan your repair strategy: General Information - Everyone should read this section. Pre-installation preparation - Everyone should read this section. Gunwale replacement instructions - How to replace both rails of your canoe. Replacing Gunwales with inset decks (including complete deck replacement) - If your canoe has inset decks you will likely have to replace them when you replace your rails. The other option is: Short-splicing method to preserve original inset decks when rerailing - You may cut the existing inwales of your canoe to avoid replacing your existing deck. The new inwale must be carefully spliced to the section of existing inwale. Installation of a 4' splicing section - If you have damage to a small section of gunwale, you can splice in a replacement section on the inside, outside or both. General Information Ordering replacement ash gunwales Rails can be ordered from an authorized Mad River dealer. Replacement ash rails are available for all Mad River Canoes.
