The Cutty Sark is one of the most famous tea clippers in the history of seafaring. Launched in 1869, it was designed to transport tea quickly from China to Europe. The design was developed by Hercules Linton, whose ambition was to create a vessel capable of competing with the fastest ships of his era, including the famous clipper Thermopylae.

The original Cutty Sark was 85.34 m long, 10.97 m wide, had a draft of 6.4 m, and a displacement of 2,133 metric tons. Today, this legendary sailing ship is preserved as a museum ship in a dry dock in Greenwich.
