Why would Capt. Cook need a ship for carrying coal?

From --Zed Orkin (talk) 13:36, 13 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

He didn't use it to carry coal, but it did have all the features he wanted in a boat. In his own words:
She must also be of a construction that will bear to take the ground; and of a size, which in case of necessity, may be safely and conveniently laid on shore, to repair any accidental damage or defect. These properties are not to be found in ships of war of forty guns, nor in frigates, nor in East India Company's ships, nor in large three-decked West India ships, nor indeed in any other but North-country-built ships, or such as are built for the coal-trade, which are peculiarly adapted to this purpose.

You can link this article to the USCG Eagle, which is a bargue. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USCG_Eagle [[User:Robert T. 18:37, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Noteable Barks

[edit]

I do not like lists and a list of notable barques would probably include a random subset of Category:Barques. I think a few more notable barques could be included in the text, like Endeavour, Moshulu and Pommern are mentioned now, e.g. as examples of the state of art, typical use, hazards of the time et cetera. A few barques that do not fit but are really noteworthy can be put in the section See also.

May be a list is good to have, if the barques are sufficiently commented, as Endavour was now. But there need to be a good thought about what ships to include.

--LPfi (talk) 13:06, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with LPfi. This article should not have a catch-all list of noteable barques and any really, really noteable ones can simply be included in "See also". --❨Ṩtruthious ℬandersnatch❩ 08:57, 20 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question

[edit]

Wondering why the STS Sedov is a barque? The photo in its article looks like it has squarely rigged sails on its mizzenmast, from course up to topgallant? Junior9077 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 01:58, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Very unprecise etymology

[edit]

"via French, which in turn came from the Latin barca by way of Occitan, Catalan, Spanish, or Italian."

Does it mean that it entered French though Occitan, Catalan, Spanish or Italian? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.91.51.235 (talk) 03:32, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
