Thank you for this. I am fixing a model my grandfather built in the 1950s. it is a task that I his Grandson will complete. My grandfather sailed on the Pamir for many years. Now I know why he built it. It us a beautiful ship with sails up. Emotions are flooding me.
Interesting to see she visited so many S Aussie ports and that she was a barque, pronounced 'bark', because most of my ancestors arrived here in such vessels after the 100+ day voyage. Actually the German spelling is bark, why we adopted the froggy version I don't know.
Greetings Jim. I googled the etymological origins on barque. It comes from the Latin word for boat. Barca = Barker in Latin. Reduced to Bark/Barque somewhere along the track. Via French? However the Romans stole Barca from The Egyptians or Celts! Interesting how different language accumulate and morph words. Great hearing from you.
Greetings there Ox, I am umming and arhhhing about totally NZ. stuff currently. It may surprise you but I get more views from the U.S than N.Z. My N.Z viewership averages around 35%. If N.Z subscriber numbers increases I will certainly put this on the 'list to do' mate.
2022-03-06 That 3rd Mate was lucky as he sailed under Eriksson shipping from Åland or earlier. I have read a book about the last grain regatta. The kaptain from Finland / Åland was astonished and in mourn because it was a good ship which hade went thrue many severe storms without damages. As the narrator says in this video. Minute 1:50 I beliewe the ship went down due to political correktness. Inkompetent re design. Den 3:e styrmannen hade tur då han seglade under Erikssons sjöfart från Åland och tidigare. Jag har läst en bok om den sista spannmålsregattan. Kaptenen från Finland/Åland var häpen och sörjande eftersom det var ett bra fartyg som hade gått igenom många svåra stormar utan skador. Som berättaren säger i den här videon. Jag tror att fartyget gick ner på grund av politisk korrekthet. Inkompetent omkonstruktion.

I cannot see how the wharfies can load grain wrong. The ship sailed . The grain may have moved and this would be caused by the weather. The only problems I can see is the holds were not full,.
