Acorn (1826)
Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the profile (elevation) and sections of the main and curved keel for Acord (1826), an 18-gun Sloop ordered to be built at Chtham Dockyard. The plan illustrates the method of fixing the deadwood and cross pieces to the keel.
Signed by Robert Seppings [Surveyor of the Navy, 1813-1832].
This appears to be a proposal for rabbeting the rising wood/deadwood for the bottom planking instead of the keel.
