Dreadnought
The Dreadnought is probably our favorite clipper- it is, after all, our most local one! Built in Newburyport in 1853 by Currier & Townsend, 212'×41'6"×26'6" and tonnage 1414 tons OM and 2337 NM. She was medium-sized but a very hardy ship. However, she sunk in 1869 on Cape Penas, off Tierra del Fuego.
