J8237

Possibly 'Ellen' (1829) [alternative spelling: Ellin] Long Caption: Scale: 1:24. A plan showing the body plan, sheer lines, and the longitudinal half-breadth for 'Ellen' (1829), a 47ft single-masted Sloop/Cutter Yacht as laid down. Note that this plan is very similar to HIL0133, which is also regarded as being for 'Ellen'. A comparison of the plans shows the only different is the angle of the stern board. There is a Lloyd's Survey Report for an 'Ellen' of 1829 (JER641), which states that this particular vessel was lengthened by nine feet to 57ft. It is unclear as to whether this is the same vessel prior to any modifications.
