Welcome to my Charles W Morgan build log, I'm starting this on December 17 2016. The Morgan needs no introduction I hope? The last wooden square rigged whale ship ,either afloat or otherwise, and also one of the few authentic historic wooden ships still afloat and in a sailing condition, built in 1841! I love ships and I love the history of whaling, so this was an obvious choice for me.

In the ship yard I am presently working on a ship in bottle diorama. A replica of the Nantucket Whaler.....Essex. I've decided to recreate a scene from the movie In The Heart of The Sea. The real story of the Essex wrecked by a sperm whale in 1820.
