Ship Model
The Clipper ship Glory of the
Seas is immortalized in the mod
el illustrated, which was con
structed by Wilson F. Erskine,
of this city, and which is now on
display at the Bank of Kodiak.
The model entailed 2000 hours
of labor, being started in 1927
and finished in June 1945
The original Glory of the Seas
was launched in Novenrtber 1869
and before its destruction gained
a high place in the annals of the
«ea During its use in Alaska in
later years it had called at Kodi
ak.
The vessel was 2102 tons, 250
feet between perpendiculars 265
feet overall and 44 ft. in breadth
Its hold was 28 and a half feet
deep and it carried 8000 square
'yards of working sails and 2500
square yards of studding sails.
Unequalled was its reeord of
35 days passage from San Fran
cisco to Sydney, Australia, in
1875, and it also made the run
from Boston to San Francisco in
105 days.
f After 1885 the Glory remained
on the Pacific ooast. It was laid
up in San Francisco from 1882—
, 1885 and 1904—1906.. Then de
prived of her splendor al >ft it
l was con vested into a Boating
cannery and was later used, by
the Glacier Fish Co. for .cold
storage In that capacity it was
stationed at Chignik one season
On May 13, 1923 on Ehdolyne
Beach in Puget Sound, 5 miles
from Seattle, the Glory was
burned for her copper, and so
was the last of the Clipper ships
built by the famous Donald Mc
Kay, builder of the Flying
Cloud, Flying Fish, Westward
Ho, Great Republic and a host of
others.
The model of ihe Glory was
built by Mr. Erskine after yea's
of research entailing correspond
ence with the descendants of
■ both Donald McKay and of the
' masters of the Glory, sift ’there
! were no existing plans of the ves
sel. The plans had been destroy
ed by fire at the McKay home.
The only plans in existence ,are
