She made several voyage between
Jamestown and London.
After the construction and departure
of the Virginia It was nearly 70 years

Then Sir William Phlpp established
a ard at Woolwich. So the industry
grew and flourished. The building of

establishing the government record in
1781. Once the forests of Maine pro

the craft built along the Kennebec. To
day only the most unimportant string
