Experience the Legacy of Cutty Sark

The Cutty Sark, launched in 1869, is a remarkable British clipper ship, known for its speed and historical significance in the tea trade.

Originally built for the Jock Willis Shipping Line in Scotland, Cutty Sark emerged as a pioneer of maritime design and technology, sailing primarily between China and England until transitioning to wool trade from Australia. Notably, it was the last of the great clippers to operate on the tea routes before steamships dominated.
