这是胜利号的介绍原文，是不是原船看看就知道了。
The VICTORY was launched 1765 in the navy yard of Chatham. She took part in many engagements until she served as flagship of admiral Nelson. On 21 October 1805 in the battle of Trafalgar, he achieved the probably most important victory in the naval history of England.
In 1922 the VICTORY was laid into a dry dock at Portsmouth and has been open for visitors since. Despite all changes in the long history of the ship and the numerous repairs, today she still holds many of the original woods from 1765.
There is more information on the ship in the homepage of Portsmouth Historic Dockyard and the official website of HMS Victory. Wikipedia has a fine article on HMS Victory. The tour guide who showed us the ship was excellent, too.
In 1922 she was saved for the nation and placed permanently into dry dock where she remains today, visited by 25 million visitors as a museum of the sailing navy and the oldest commissioned warship in the world.
HMS Victory is currently undergoing the biggest restoration programme in her history. The Victory conservation project is unique, large and complex. It requires specialist skills and knowledge, a great deal of time, and a great deal of research in order to develop solutions to the challenges the project presents. Whether we are replacing planking in the main wales (the 10” thick bands of planking which help to hold the hull in shape) or procuring a new support system, nothing is off the shelf; we have to ensure that the solutions we develop are correct, as one of the key things to bear in mind when working on any museum object is that one should not experiment on it. The National Museum of the Royal Navy accepts that conserving a ship is expensive, but is also determined to ensure that it represents value for money |
