THE SWEDISH EAST INDIAMAN GÖTHEBORG
On the 12th of September 1745, the swedish East Indiaman Götheborg headed for her home port after almost two years of sailing the world´s oceans. The ship suffered heavily from storms, and the crew were exhausted but full of expectation. But alas, the triuphant homecoming would end in catastrophe. With a pilot on board and before the very eyes of encouraging Göteborgers in small boats and on hte beaches, the vessel ran aground in the middle of the entrance to Göteborg harbour - and sunk with her entire cargo. Thanks to all nearby boats, all the crew survived. Repeated attempts with varying success were made to salvage the valuable cargo, which was worth as much as the national budget.

Carriacou Mermaid
The Mermaid of Carriacou is certainly the most famous 'island sloop' currently afloat in the Lesser Antilles.
Mermaid of Carriacou was designed by British marine architect Sterling Burgess and built by Zepherine MacLaren at Windward, Carriacou, for American yachtsman and adventurer J. Lynton Rigg. She is 44 feet long with 13 feet of beam, and has a moderate draft. She is somewhat slab-sided - with sharp floors, extreme dead rise, and a graceful entry. She has a long, straight run aft. The design - especially when loaded with cargo and heeled by the Trades - is a sweet one.
