Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the bow, head, headrails, trail-board and figurehead for Racer (1833), a 16-gun Second Class brig, rigged as a sloop. The plan for the figurehead relates to the ship’s recommissioning at Plymouth Dockyard in June 1848.

A half-length bust of a male facing forward wearing a jockey’s cap with its visor or peak. His jacket has a high collar and a wide cravat is around his neck. This design is very similar to the replacement figurehead proposed in 1853 for HMS Racehorse (1830).

Signed by W. Edye [Master Shipwright, Devonport, 1843-1859]. The plan includes an Admiralty Letter Book number S6823.
