Another merchant vessel model that nearly is required to have sails is the skipjack. (Which is yet another example of "over-canvased" fishing vessel seen in American waters.) The pinkies affect the inshore racing boats that became playthings of those who became rich from the Pinkie's work. It's easy to see some of the lineage in the various form of "sharpie" that were popular racers in New England.

I have no previous knowledge on maritime history, shipping types and variations through history etc, and I can sometimes get lost in the expansive amount of information avaliable out there. But the subject you coverd today was enjoyable and detailed. Thank you for sharing a little bit of your knowledge on the subject of the pinky schooner. Really interesting.

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Thank you very much! I am glad you liked it!

I bought this boat last year. Olha made me buy it. She is incredibly talented. Thank you for sharing this boat and it’s design features. Have a peaceful week.🌲

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoy it!

Good morning Dr. Batchvarov. Another excellent presentation.

Вітаю! хочу подякувати за цікаву інформацію , пов'язану з цим судном!!! Чекаю на нові історії!!!

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Щиро дякую!

A great presentation that brings these models alive. Love the history behind the Pinky Schooner. As Olga has built an amazing Ragusian Carrack model which is so different in design to the British ships it would make a great presentation from you..

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Thank you! I was already warned that as soon as I return home from the excavation - two models are waiting for review at home)))

[@JayJSMN-tz1nv]

Wonderful !!👍👍

Dear Dr. Batchvarov, I wanted to express my thoughts on your latest video, and I believe it goes beyond being simply interesting. Personally, I find your chosen topics and approach to be an invaluable resource for any ship modeller. That is truly how I perceive it. As I was engrossed in your video, a question arose, accompanied by a potential subject for your future content. Olga mentioned her admiration for ships from the Columbus era, having even constructed models of the Pinta and the Carrack. And, I build Santa Maria model now. Hence, I thought it would be wonderful if you could delve into that particular era of shipbuilding and navigation. Additionally, I would appreciate your comments on a matter I recently came across. There is a notion suggesting that Columbus's ships, despite being classified as "remodeled" versions from the 18th and 19th centuries (such as the Nao, in the case of the Santa Maria), might not have been capable of transoceanic voyages. Some argue that they would have required a design more akin to a galley for such ambitious undertakings. And though I hadn't seen David Kelsey's comment (found somewhere below this video) while composing my own, I support him :). Thank you for your time and for consistently providing enriching content, as always 👍👍

Thank you for watching and thank you for the suggestion! Perhaps I will indeed address this in a future issue

I was taught that those boats were properly called “pinks” ,coming from a corruption of the french word for pinch. Pinky is a modern change ,perhaps as resent as 1950s . A friend has a steel pink of about 45 feet . One of that boat’s attributes is her ability to heave-to and stay in place in all sorts of seas states.

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

This is another term that changed meaning over the centuries. Initially, the pinque was a 3-masted square-rigged merchant ship. It had a stern similar to that of tue Dutch fluyt.

[@Ramenscooter]

Great job, love this presentation.

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Thank You! Very kind of you! I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@finlayfraser9952]

What and interesting working life the two of you must have.

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Hahaha- well, it can be, yes. And frequently I am described as a shipmodelers nightmare. Upon rare occasion it is recognized that I might have some value and usefulness :-)

[@DB.scale.models]

Well sense your in the US now, Welcome. This was a out standing vidio , that spiked my Curiosity, please state what tight to the wind means fully i think i understand it. My ignorance is showing here . Why dose the small sturn make her slow with the wind to her sturn ( sails blanked out?) I would love to see vidios on hull shapes and why one is better then the next? I am from the plans states no ocean for 1000 miles lol.

[@Johnny-tt8zc]

D Tight to the wind is another term for close hauled. Meaning the sails are maybe 20-30 degrees off the centerline of the hull. Usually when heading up wind. The double ended design is streamlined and doesn’t offer back pressure like a traditional stern would provide. Meaning water passes the stern and turns inward and pushes on the stern and adds propulsion. Hope this helps a little. Also, I think he means going down wind, the sails are about 80 degrees to the centerline of the hull. On opposite sides of the boat. Also called wing on wing.

[@JMHTruck32005]

@@Johnny-tt8zc One thing I am learning as I get more involved in model ships is it a steep learning curve. Your answer proves that, "Also called wing on wing." I've never heard that phrase before. Thank you.

[@DB.scale.models]

@@Johnny-tt8zc Thanks!

[@Johnny-tt8zc]

@@JMHTruck32005 JMH, It's a term used more in the radio controlled community. But it crosses over to the full size boat community. Have a peaceful week.

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Tight on the wind or hard on the wind means close-hauled; beating against it. I have been in the US for more than 30 years now, but thank you for the welcome. The narrow sterns tend to squat with the wind aft and that slows down the ship.

[@bengilbert5610]

What was the purpose of the extended rail aft? I see there is a boom crutch mounted on the transom, but surely this wasn't the main reason for the extension.

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

This is an excellent question. Neither is it likely that main purpose was the seat of ease…. I have to admit that I myself am not quite sure.

i am a CONSTITUTION and clipper fan- so that would be something you could address- tyvm

[@kroumbatchvarov-archaeologist]

Thank you! I think I can make some interesting videos about the Constitution. Especially since I'm in Boston very often...

[@anguscampbell9311]

I’m working my way up to building the Model Shipways Constitution kit. I’d love to hear your take on the vessel. Great channel; I’m subscribing.
