[@TaitLawrence-xl2xb]

Well if we're talking warships then the British HMS Victoria was the largest. The French had the Valmy in second and the Americans in third with the USS Pennsylvania and the Spanish in fourth with the Santissima Trinidad. This is the best I could find with my research

[@krls3215]

Santísima Trinidad, the only ship in history with 4 decks and 140 guns, 4,902 tons. 63.36 meters. Victory 3,556 tons, 104 guns. 69.3 meters. Lócean 2,700 tons, 118 guns. 65 meters.

All those tales of "sea monsters" sinking ships make so much more sense when you realise that ships were barely the size of a regular modern day pleasure yacht for most of human history.

[@geigertec5921]

Yep, and there were WAY more whales alive back then and they were bigger and one of the food they ate was giant squid, so imagine you're in a tiny ship and you happen upon a whale eating a squid and having no concept of what either animal is all you see is tentacles and teeth and god forbid the fighting animals get too close to the ship and touch it slightly - it could break the ship!

[@KepeskUrthalre-h6r]

Those tales mostly ended when ships got bigger but in my stories the monsters just feasted enough to get super fat so they can crawl into their cave and sleep just so they can get big enough to keep up with it, waiting, growing, and the time of them coming out is nye. I also have explanations for how they will outfight modern firepower but any time I come up with that level of clever well thought out comment my comments have a nasty habit of getting removed after 11 seconds.

You forgot the Ming dynasty "treasure ships." Here's a description... And remember these were all sail no engines... "Incredibly, the largest ships in the fleet (called "baoshan," or "treasure ships") were likely between 440 and 538 feet long by 210 feet wide. The 4-decked baoshan had an estimated displacement of 20-30,000 tons, roughly 1/3 to 1/2 the displacement of modern American aircraft carriers. Each had nine masts on its deck, rigged with square sails that could be adjusted in series to maximize efficiency in different wind conditions. The Yongle Emperor ordered the construction of an amazing 62 or 63 such ships for Zheng He's first voyage, in 1405. Extant records show that another 48 were ordered in 1408, plus 41 more in 1419, along with 185 smaller ships throughout that time."

[@frederiknielsen6038]

the actual size of these treasure shps are heavily disputed, and there is very little archological evidence about them. But certianly they were nowhere near the size you mentioned. That is simply just not possible with wooden ship construction. in the middle of the 19th century, ca. 1850, british 1st rate ships of the line were reaching the upper limit in terms of size for what naval architects calculated to be possible with a purely wooden hull. And this was with the advanced construction methods of the age, these ships maxed out at a displacement of about 7000 tons. and a lenght of a little over 200 feet. There is just no way that the chinese build ships that were 3-4 times larger 400 years earlier.

[@Redfour5]

​@@frederiknielsen6038hey there are already fake ships in the list... why not?

[@jmcitr382]

This a very eurocentric ranking, just like many other things.

[@MS-io6kl]

I agree that the treasure ships are missing. However, the dimensions you give a highly improbable. The numbers that seem most likely to me, put them at about two to three times the dimensions of a Napoleonic Wars era 1st rate ship of the line with a tonnage probably slightly less than double that of a 1st rate, given that the 1st rates' displacement included 100+ guns, ammunition for said guns and a hull constructed to take fire from other 1st rates in the line of battle. It's highly likely that the treasure ships being merchant and representation vessels rather than fully focus built war ships and nobody else in the world having ships approaching this size for a few hundred years, would be much lighter constructed than an HMS Victory or a Santissima Trinidad.

[@Redfour5]

@@MS-io6kl They have the Flying Dutchman and the Black Pearl in the list... IT for sure wasn't real. Why not historically mentioned ships with a disclaimer.

[@marpaumurrcar]

Portugal had several sailboats that could be included in this list, such as the Madre de Deus ship, which was the largest ship in the world at its time, weighing 1,600 tons, and the São João Baptista, better known by the nickname Botafogo, was a Navy galleon. Portuguese, during the 16th century. At its time, it was the most powerful warship in the world. The ship was armed with 366 bronze fire hydrants, therefore having tremendous firepower. For this reason it became known as Botafogo. It had a displacement of more than 1,000 tons and the Padre Eterno was a Portuguese galleon, built in Brazil in the 17th century, which was considered, at the time, the largest ship in the world, in 1665 with more than 3,000 tons Just to name a few!

The rest of the ships are not ships of the line. If we count that, we could count modern sail ships like the sea cloud, 109m long.

Largest pure sailing warship was Turkish Mahmudiye 1829 (+6000 tons), second largest were French Valmy 1847, which were actually c.5500 tons of displacement.Other large were Pennsylvania 1837 (5140 tn.), Dvenadtsat Apostolov 1841 (c.4870 t.), Queen 1839 (+5000 tn.)

[@silverpleb2128]

No. Océan weight was 5098 tons, 150tons bigger than the 4 950 Santissima. Océan class carried 118 canons, but never 80 canons. You're confusing it with the Bucentaure, a 2 deck french ship carrying 86 canons and weighting 3 875 tons. Océan class crew was about 1130 Sailors. 1050 for the Santissima Trinidad. You are again confusing it with the Bucentaure which effectivly carried 800 Sailors. But still not 700 as you said. Also, talking about canons, yes Océan class carried less canons than the Santissima. But it was well know that Spanish ships carried smaller caliber canons, and less quality canons than its european counterparts. The french ambassador in Madrid M. de Montmorin said : corruption reign in Spanish arsenals alongside the lack of crew training. Observators sent by the kingdom of France, such as Joseph-Alphonse de Véri noted : The King of Spain thinking his navy is strong by the look of it, is trying his best to engage it in a conflict, yet ignore that his carcass of ships, better looking ships in Europe, are served with only few crews all lacking of experience of training. Santissima Trinidad was bigger and heavier than its older french counterpart Bretagne, but never than the Océan.

The "Industrial Revolution" was about equipping the British Navy - hence the Empire - for resources. Bigger ships, heavier guns, longer at sea. Alternatives to wood was needed. Stronger, durable, mass produced to a standard that was already in place. So = metal ores, mining, factories, railways, steam machines, housing for working communities, food for the masses - deep ploughs, canals, barges. There was necessity = there was invention.

This ship defies the laws of physics. Back in the 18th century, the length of European ships was limited by the strength of the wooden keel (a long ship could break between waves). Europeans bypassed this limitation only in the 19th century, when they started building ships from steel.

[@TheTrytix]

From what I can remember, Great Eastern was stupendously massive when she stood complete. She was the largest ship of her time, and unlike Titanic, there wasn't even a competition. Titanic was one of three sister ships roughly equal in size. Titanic, Britannic and Olympic. Other ships of that time, though smaller, weren't smaller by much. However back when Great Eastern was made, she was SO much larger than second place, it wasn't even funny. At least, if my memory does indeed serve me correct here.

With all due respect to the creator of the video, it is funny that he shows English ships from the 16th century as if they were marvels of naval engineering or had formidable power. If we compare them with Portuguese ships from the same period, the English ships were like paper boats, while the Golden Hind (late 16th century) weighed only 110 tons, the São João Baptista, also known as Botafogo (mid-16th century) weighed 1,000 tons and had 366 artillery pieces. Even in the 17th century, the Portuguese still made powerful ships like the Padre Eterno, weighing 3,000 tons and carrying 164 artillery pieces, and the Spanish also made powerful ships (Real Felipe, Glorioso, Príncipe de Asturias, Pelayo) although they only appear a few times in this video. No Dutch ships, not even some of the most famous ones like the De Zeven Provinciën, Brederode or Eendracht, appear in this video. Danish ships like Trefoldighed or Christianus V.

and it's definitely something to be proud of! the Ocean class ships were huge and legendary. Unfortunately, they were too bulky to compete with Britain's royal navy

[@blusheep2]

I liked the idea but I wish you had back lit the ships with the sun. They were all in shadow and I couldn't see them that well.

[@tommywolfe2706]

funny that "La Concord" had a crew compliment of over 300 and a weight of 300 tons with the Beagle being a much larger ship. 550 but requiring half the crew. Even for war. Some countries were really good at packing in the crew I guess, while some were able to get by with half the numbers for much larger ships. And if we are looking at nations, France is not known for its navy and never really has been lol. Maybe that is the difference. Once you get to the Vasa, the numbers seem get normalized, but for size of ship with crew complement, England sure knew what they were doing. Better example is the hms trincomalee. Weighing 1447 tons but only requiring typically between 284 and 315 officers and men The much smaller La Concorde was less than a quarter of that size but required the same amount for crew complement. That is wild.

[@silverpleb2128]

France is known to make efficient sailing ships.French ships were surely the best for their sailing abilities, their strenght/sturdiness and the capacity of the french to carry heavier guns than their counterparts, making the french ships pretty dangerous. The problem of the french navy during its entier history, isnt the ships themself, but the funds and the lack of experienced sailors especially just after the revolution, which saw nearly 50% of the experienced navy officers and skilled sailors leaving the navy for the army but firstly leaving the country. Many sailors during the napoleonic wars came from the army but also the merchant navy but couldnt be all trained properly in only 15years. Great-Britain was well known for its crews and the quality of its training and generally its sea culture. furthermore, Great-Britain obtened naval dominance as Great-Britain maintained a strong navy whatever events occured in its history and maintained a great amount of funds to its navy. Which wasnt the case for its rivals France and Spain.

[@geographyinaction7814]

Beagle was reduced in manpower and carried Charles Darwin. Beagle was more scientific than military for a portion of her life.

[@tommywolfe2706]

@@geographyinaction7814 I just looked up "crew compliment" which is usually men required for operation of the ship plus officers, if I am not mistaken. Warships tend to have more because of the guns and extra soldiers, but again, the British seem to be the best at getting by with the least.

[@RobGrenzendicht]

Were are the mighty Dutch VOC ships that ruled 150 years the oceans?

[@orianamedhestchanel3894]

Cool video, but pre last ship - HMS Warrior, its steam-powered armoured frigate. And the last ship - SS Great Eastern, its also iron from iron, its steamboat civil ship. So both these and few before isnt classic sails-wood-wind ships, its iron sailing steam ships(with steam engine), thats another sub class of sails ships, thats why comparing that with no engine ones kinda unfair. And no offence, that was just some addition. Again, overall this video was fire, there many ships i didnt heard about, big thanks for your work)

[@DrTheRich]

Lol, no where does he say it's just classic sails-wood-wind ships. You made up your own category then blame him for not keeping to it. It said sail ship size comparison. Those are all sail ships. Btw it's not a competition, it has nothing to do with fairness.

[@michastaneke2791]

Where are the dutch ships ?, voc etc, they ones ruled the seas

[@nightmare-my8mu]

Piratas caribeños

[@DrTheRich]

They weren't as impressive in size for their time. Dutch ship mostly dominated for a time due to their superior build quality and nimbleness. As well as the skill of the sailors, and a good bit of luck. But in terms of size, they weren't nameworthy.

[@brianspendelow840]

I find it strange that many ships on this list are only famous for people who sailed on them, rather than for their design. If innovative design is taken into consideration the greatest sailing ship of all time, The Sovereign of the Seas 1637, should get a mention.
