Unnamed 53ft Schooner (1803)

Scale: 1:48. A plan showing the body plan, modified sheer lines with some inboard detail, and modified longitudinal half-breadth proposed for an unnamed 53ft Schooner for the use in Port Jackson, Australia. This shows that the vessel was modified from a single-masted vessel to a Schooner. A copy with the modifications was sent to Chatham Dockyard on 3 January 1803 to be forwarded to Calcutta and then to Port Jackson.

Signed by John Henslow [Surveyors of the Navy, 1784-1806] and William Rule [Surveyor of the Navy 1793-1813].
