Pirated 38 gun, 3 mast frigate

Ekaterina-class frigate Aleksandr


This ship is a proof of concept, aimed to transfer models from the National Museum of Finland project “Historia eläväksi digitaalisella tarinankerronnalla”

That project digitalising of historical objects, produced quite a few high quality 3d models of historic ships. 3d models that were published under Creative Commons attribution license.

The Aleksander frigate was the largest Russian archipelago navy class ship in 1790 on the Baltic Sea. Five of these ships took part in the Second Battle of Svensksund on July 9th and were lost (taken over, sunk, or burnt), while eight frigates in total were built during the war of 1788–1790 against Sweden. Ekaterina-class frigates had a typical rig of the period, known as an archipelago or rowing frigate. The hull has nine smaller holes between gun deck main gun ports.

Hull dimensions: • Length at waterline: 39.60 m • Greatest width (breadth): 9.80 m • Greatest depth: 3.6 m

The original 3d model was created in the National Museum of Finland project “Historia eläväksi digitaalisella tarinankerronnalla” by Zoan Oy.

For Sailaway III the model was solidified where required, keel beam was closed, planks were given a thickness of 5 cm.. Missing faces were added. The rowing oar ports were given hatches. Parts were separated to allow animation.

Captured for prise off the Russians by the Swedes..

According to sources she was lost at theL2nd Battle of Rochensalm (1790), repaired by Swedes and commissioned as HMS Alexander,

further future unknown……….

… except for some very vague 20 th century sources that claim she showed up in the Caribbean in the hand of a buccaneer named Sparrow....
