“Cutty Sark” – Amati Plan

The Tea Clipper “Cutty Sark” was built in 1869 at Dumbarton, Scotland for the Jock Willis Shipping Line. She was one of the last Tea Clippers to be built and one of the fastest.
Length 85.34m, Breadth 10.97m, Draught 6.4m, Displacement 2,133 tons.
She was destined for the China tea trade.
Eventually, Clippers lost out to Steamships that could pass through the recently opened Suez Canal and deliver goods more reliably.
Used in the Australian wool trade and sold in 1895 to a Portuguese company, eventually returning to the UK in 1923.
In 1954, “Cutty Sark” was restored and moved to a custom-built dry-dock and displayed at Greenwich, London as a Museum Ship.
The drawings set consist of two sheets which allow for a small, simple model to be built. Sheet 1 shows the construction of a very simple carved “Bread & Butter” Hull.
Sheet 2 shows detail of a simplified Rigging Plan including Sail Patterns.
