Hello Erin, this is a video from when the Mary Rose Museum opened a few years ago. The staff member is painting the outside of the Mary Rose Museum, hence the ? against the video title :) Best wishes ^AH

​@PortsHistDockyard I know but you called that the mary rose when it's the museum

King Vitt Hi fucking moron this is a different ship you stupid excuse of a human. Does your brain evolve backwards? Fuck off

Thats a cannon from the HMS Victory (1737), you may be thinking of the HMS Victory (1865), maybe do a quick google search before making a fool of yourself online

I was wondering why they did not remove the mast the way they were done back then: the upper parts can all be lowered down, with tackles, only the lowermost parts were set in and taken out with cranes

@@lutzderlurch7877 My thought was that when you ‘free’ a top mast section it becomes very unstable with nothing above it to hold it. Pure speculation; Either they used cranes then, or they ‘hinged’ the top section down, then block and tackled it OR they set up an A frame to keep a rope above it. But I have no conclusive knowledge except for the fact that they were incredibly skilled in terms of rigging and handling large awkward things!

@@vintagethings9187 At the 'overlaps' there are two 'holes, one lower down at the fighting top and equivalent, and one at the piece sitting at the very top of the lower mast sect. in the foot of the upper mast section there were, at least in times of wooden masts, slots with pulley discs. They would basically thread the upper tip of whichver part they want to install through the holes mentioned before, and run the ropes an tackled from the fighting top to the foot of the mast section, ans then raise it up. I am reasonably certain a rope loop was keeping the mast sections foot from swaying too far from the lower part during raisin. As the mast sections taper, the higher up it gets raised and the close to its final position it gets, the tighter the holes fit and less wiggle room exists. This was done without cranes and reasonably stable, and was also done for maintenance and repairs at sea. Mana ships carried reserve spars for important pieces, to have spares inc ase the originals get damaged ina ction or storms.

(It's one of those things rather easy conceptually and shown with sketches or things in a few seconds, but a hell on earth to try to describe with words alone XD)

[I have seen some hist. ship replica basically telescope her masts together to pass under a low bridge.]

I think it was probably recycled over and over. Certainly the PEG was.

And these same places have a birth rate many times over what they should be if they were behaving responsibly! First world countries often have a 1 to negative birth rate and I suppose it’s all our fault and not the people behaving irresponsibly? The same places with ‘famines’ cannot have a single year without a war but that’s another debate for another time. Not to mention that these same nations that ‘decadently’ try to preserve their history are also the number one suppliers of aid, both medical and food, means nothing to you? Of course it doesn’t. You’re too full of hate.

And that's our responsibility because......?

Mmm i love being decadent...its ok to be white too

Oh my god shut up… our island nation is surrounded by sea you numpty. Besides, it’s a recycled wax based solution. Ridiculous woke comment.

This gun is from a different ship called Victory that sank in the English Channel in 1744. The Victory at Portsmouth was launched in 1765.

Justin Reillyhyers what a fucking potato you are

The Victory as we know today was launched in 1765. The Victory that wrecked was built and sunk a couple decades before then in the 1740s.

🤔

No, lol. It’s a symbol of terror. Reference HMS Conqueror’s action in the Falklands.

@@SwitchTF2 that was bullshit

@@willdenoble1898 What part? The sinking of Belgrano?

The ceremony is done in the hanger deck with prince of wales in attendance.

@@isunlloaoll Ah, thanks for that. I've since looked it up and you're right.

Paul Kirkland so pleased that it was built in Great Britain takes me back to when we built all our. own ships upsets me when we have ships built elsewhere Dennis Andrew perhaps I am stuck in the past but I don't think so we are still capable

The prince of Wales well where is the Welsh flag of wales all I see is the English flag with the union flag stuck on it so much for this so called union

@@anneandrew8962 I couldn't agree more, Anne. I am a retired marine engineer, and lament the decline in Britain's shipbuilding industry. But, as you say, at least we built these two, and it shows that the skills are not lost altogether. Merry Christmas. :)

started building her in 2011...launched 2 years ago...so it was 8 years

@@PompeyMatt17 That's not a long time tho. Russia is planning yo have theirs in 2040 and that's excluding the additional time they will need and money.
