About: Original (catamaran)

An Entity of Type: ship, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Original was a catamaran built by Englishman in Rangoon, Burma in the early 19th century. Being taught by experience in the brig Bucephalus, which had a great rise of floor, that the form of the floor did not govern velocity, I built an experimental schooner called the "Original," on the double canoe or fallen floor principle, length 45 feet, breadth 9 feet, depth forward 5 feet, after 6 feet, to sail 3 feet by the stern. She proved to be a fast sailing fine sea boat; she traded during the S. W. monsoon between Rangoon and Tenasserim Provinces for several years. — Mayflower Crisp
