60ft Schooner (1847)

Scale: 1:48. A plan showing the body plan with half stern board outline, midship section, sheer lines with inboard detail, longitudinal half-breadth with pencil deck annotations, for a 60ft Schooner built at Bombay for the South Australian Government.

N.B. Some books have named this vessel 'Australian' because of the pencil annotation on the top. However, there is no direct evidence that this was her name.
