Can You Identify This Vessel??

You guys sound like you're talking about a beautiful woman, I swear!

 

Thanks once again for your help, you may be lucky and find a similar example closer to home one day.....Kind regards Steve

 

You're welcome!
Thanks for showing 'her' off.

 

To GaleriaGila.....we are....all thinks beautiful have a female side!! lol xx

 

She is.

 

Did you want me to point out specific things about her lines and such Gila.

 

No! I think she's a flirt and a hussy! I'm absolutely jealous!

 

Ha!!!!
You and most other women when there is a ship or boat in the 'family'.

 

Okay, I tried to gold off, gentlemen, but... this is SHIP PORN!

 

And your point????

 

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!

Lucky for you two, I have a lunch date and must be off... or else, I'd have a lightning comeback or two! Enjoy your menage a trois!

 

This is the home page of the USS Hornet. Don't think this is her. She was built in 1805 and reworked for the War of 1812.

I should also add that the flag may be incorrect and either fit the ship or was added at a later date. It may not even be an American ship

 

An unidentified, undocumented floosy, on the loose, with no papers!

 

I know of that one and I believe the subject one is USS HORNET #1. The two USS HORNETS that followed, both 1805, would not have looked like this one and if I am correct then her flag is correct as well.

 

This is #3.

 

I've changed my mind. She may be the USS Hannah though even this is uncertain. USS HANNAH was US Navy ship #1.

Her fate is unknown.

 

The vessel is actually not a ship but a brig. Flush decked with a gaff mizzen abaft the mainmast. The model is tidy but a bit scetchy on the rigging detail, which is understandable, but would keep it in the lower reaches of model ship prices.

I think it is fairly modern. The anchor is oversized and would in no cirumstances be hanging where it is with any sail unfurled. It would bash in the bow in any sort of a swell.

 

I agree the anchor is not pulled up and back where it should be for whatever reason though she is still a ship or vessel. A brig is her type.
