K1 Britannia
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 17 ส.ค. 2012
Britannia was acquired by K1 Britannia to be used for maritime education, charity fundraises, and a whole range of charitable causes.
K1 Britannia's is to complete the rebuild of the vessel to the same standard and specification of the original, and to reclaim the history of this iconic vessel.
She is now being stripped and prepared for her refit at Venture Quays in East Cowes. Upon completion in 15 months time she is purposed to be used for a whole range of charitable causes. Her overal length will measure 52m with a staggeringly tall 55m mast, the tallest wooden mast in the world!

Replica built of Britannia, the Kings Yacht

The spirit of this project is all about giving Britannia to the people, it is a project that reclaims a piece of maritime history and elevates charitable giving globally but without help, the design and engineering cannot be completed to the specification, beauty and detail that we've envisioned from the start! In order to complete the design of the interior, special materials will need to be a...

Where's the boat? The shop made money, is it still there?
Appalling thing to do to a magnificent ship for his own vanity. Proved himself a small man.
Dit waren de zwanen .
George V is so handsome even in old age
I am always surprised at the slings used to lift sea going craft where they have been known to slip and the craft slides out often to costly repairs, especially when the two slings are not attached to each others lower end.
" *Often* ", under what definition do you claim that? (I am not being facetious nor cynical, merely intrigued.) 🔸As a percentage or odds, how frequently does a "...sea going craft... slip and... slides out..."? 🔸Is there a common reason why they have done so? 🔸Is it primarily a human, materials, or process issue/failure?
Is she built yet ?
Is the ship still under construction? It is a magnificent vessel.
Another vid completely wrecked by that bloke annoying chap messing about on his Casio keyboard all the way through.
no true sailor can wish his/her boat to be sunk after his/her death.
no such thing as a true sailor, only silly boys who never grew up
Here's an idea, let's build a giant yacht using other people's money because I need a tax deduction .... And a timeshare 🤗
Whatever happened with the rebuilt?
I haven't seen any updates in years. Shame.
Rumour has it that they bought and shipped a useless junker that would snap in half if they placed a mast and rigging on her 🤔
What a waste.
How egocentric of the king to order the original yacht to be sunk upon his death , a disgrace and an insult to all those who designed and created the original Brittania.
If I cant have it no one else will either !
There a strange lot, the Royals!
Fantastic!! This is a dream for an earlier owner of a R8 yacht - the Swedish Anne Sophie - together with my good friend Per Wermelin. Jan WIhlborg
Terrible no regard to the thousands of hours it took for the craftsman that built her.
Someone just got a degree in video production. Voice over and tracking were from two different eras.
the America kicks its ass and so the Americas Cup is born.
america kicks its own ass and it should
Where is the boat? What is happening with it?
project is dead in the w 'em dry dock in South Hampton.
So where is this project now? Was it all a fancy presentation hoping for endless cash of others to fill in the costs and dreams for someone else?
I understand that the hull was rotten. She is/was sitting on a mooring off Hythe in Southampton - The Russians build boats out of poor material which doesn't last. Some people lost a lot of money
for charity my ass!
Monarchy filth.
'Challenged youth' is being teached how to built her, but doubt if they will be teached the fun part, sailing her.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How awful to sink her !
Scuttling the hull was a stupid thing to do. Typical British fuzzy thinking: romantic, nostalgia, poignant, meaningless. Almost all British bad decisions over a 100 years would have been reversed by a panel of American college students.
+Clyde Cessna thank god that can't happen!
nothing to do with' the British'. It was the private property of King George V and he decreed it in his will. I am sure most people world wide would feel it is up to an individual to decide how he disposes of his private property, especially as it pertains to their last will and testament.
shut up clyde!
so cool. I love the britannia
Can someone tell me the name of the soundtrack?
What is the definition of "rebuilt". This is not Britannia, it is a built-from-scratch replica. Not even a faithful one: "with full modern amenities". I fear this yacht is going to live a life of being misrepresented to the young. What else can "come on board and be part of her history" mean ? Incidentally...how more clearly can we see the incredible selfish arrogance of kingship, than in her royal owner's decision to destroy her. How did the craftsmen who created the original vessel feel ?
Lyndar Lehane "Rebuilt" just means it was built again in lieu of the old one being destroyed/damaged/
This has to be one of the most annoying videos on TH-cam. The frantic editing and playing with special effects is completely out of synchronisation of the voice over. In the end the only piece worth watching was the historic film of the original yacht.

How fabulous to see the magnificent yachts racing. I am proud of my Great Grandfather Lord Waring who owned the J-Class yacht White Heather II which raced with the Britannia and is seen on this video. K1 Britannia is a tremendous project. I am eager to share my photographs and information about the J-class yachts, Best wishes
Please contact asap, am interested...t

6 Raise your glasses to her lads she’s on the open sea at last Again we’ll sail beneath the mast of Britannia queen of the sea. 7 Raise your glasses one again to all the girls and all the men Who helped the lady sail again Britannia queen of the sea.
5 They built her once again my lads it filled there hearts with pride… to see her driven by the wind and sail against the tide On the waters off the Isle of Wight she sailed again into the the Solent night.
3 Built upon the River Clyde she sailed out on the April tide To win great races far and wide Britannia queen of the sea. 4 King George V he did decree that when I die she dies with me Her timbers lie beneath the sea Britannia queen of the sea
1 Gather round and listen lads I’ll tell you tales beneath the mast of the King of England’s sailing gaff Britannia queen of the sea. 2 The year of 1893 a week ahead of Valkyrie She first set sail upon the sea Britannia queen of the sea
I was delighted to be asked to write the music for the project. Below are the words to my sea shanty Scott has the mp3 track. I hope people will sing this at every destination. Britannia Queen of the sea. Words & Music Peter Clarke
