Default Cutty Sark Documentation (The Ship, not the whisky)

For anyone looking for documentation about this last surviving clipper ship:

The Cutty Sark has a new website: http://www.cuttysark.org.uk/. Despite
regular maintenance, the ship's composite hull is starting to show its age
and very much so. Therefore, an extensive conservation project will be
started by the end of the year 2006, lasting until 2009, to save this
beautiful ship from disintegration. On the Cutty Sark's website there are 3
interesting PDF documents describing various aspects of the conservation
project
(http://www.cuttysark.org.uk/index.cf...bkghkcdkkgoofb).

For anyone planning to build a model of her: Through the Cutty Sark's
onboard shop a set of 3 plans by G.F. Campbell are available, General
Arrangement, Rigging Plan, and Sail Plan. These plans were used in the
reconstruction of the ship in the nineteen fifties (they are available as
separate sheets too). Finally, on my homepage I have uploaded in PDF
document containing all documentation I ever found on the ship
(http://home.hccnet.nl/jl.van.wijhe/D...bliography.pdf).
