Description: | Plan showing the body plan, sheer lines with inboard detail and stern quarter decoration, and longitudinal half-breadth for an unknown 125ft three-masted rowing Frigate (circa 1775).
The plan dimensions and the type of vessel suggest that this may be one of the Russian Evagelist Mark class of 20-gun rowing frigates used in the Baltic. The date also supports this possibility, as the 'Provornyi' was launched in 1776.
