Structural Analysis of the Warwick
Author(s): Piotr T Bojakowski
Year: 2013
Summary
The remains of the Warwick are one of the largest and most coherent fragments of an early 17th century English ship. Notwithstanding the historical designation of the vessel as the "magazine" ship, the Warwick was far from being an ordinary freighter. As the analysis of its structurecontinues, it appears this ship was a finely crafted and finished vessel and a powerful fighting machine. It was built in a more traditional style, perhaps a style going back to such notable examples as the Mary Rose and earlier, but at a vital period in English ship design and construction.
