Statement of Significance

• She is the world’s sole surviving extreme clipper, a type of vessel that was the highest development of the fast commercial sailing ship, with the majority of her hull fabric surviving from her original construction.

• She is internationally appreciated for her beauty and is one of the most famous ships in the world.

•Her fine lines – a considerable part of her appeal – are defined by her frames which form part of the vessel’s composite construction; a construction technique of which she is the best surviving example and of which she is of exceptional quality.

•As a tea clipper, she is tangible evidence of the importance of tea in 19th century trade and cultural life.
