About
Cutty Sark is an English clipper ship.
The Jock Willis River of Scotland in 1869 for the maritime line was one of the latest dry load clippers built in Dumbarton and was built at the end of the short -term design development process.
The opening of the Suez Canal (in 1869) meant that Bukhar ships now had a much shorter route to China.
So Cutty Sark spent only a few years in tea trade before returning to the wool trade in Australia, which he held his record.
Developments in steam technology, gradually meant that steam ships dominate the longer sailing route to Australia, and in 1895 the Portuguese company was sold to Ferreira and Co. and re -named Ferreira.
In 1922, he continued as a cargo ship until it was purchased by retired naval captain Wilfred Dowman, who used him as a training vessel operating in Cornwall.
After Wilfred Dowman's death, Cutty Sark was transferred to Thames Maritime Education College, Greenhithe in 1938 and became an assistant war training ship with HMS Worcester.
In 1954, he stopped being used as a caded ship and was publicly transferred to a permanent dry pier in London, Greenwich.
Cutty Sark is listed by national historical ships as an unique part of the National Historical Fleet.
It is one of the three original composite structures (wooden body on the iron frame) just three original composite structures dating from the nineteenth century.
The ship has been damaged twice in recent years, on May 21, 2007, under protection.
It was restored and reopened on April 25, 2012.
He was damaged in a smaller fire on October 19, 2014, and was later restored again.
