Fury (1814)
Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the half-section through the ship just aft the large stove that provided the heating on board and the inboard profile as fitted to Fury (1814), a Bomb Vessel converted for Arctic exploration (Northwest Passage) under Captain William Parry. The half-section also illustrates the additional planking to protect the ship.
The ship was converted at Deptford Dockyard between November 1820 and April 1821. The plan states she was fitted for 'discovery to the North Pole', but this order was subsequently changed to searching for the Northwest Passage.
