Sailing ship to become museum affiliate
The recently created National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN) has named HMS Trincomalee as its first official affiliate.
HMS Trincomalee, the oldest British warship still afloat, is currently based in Hartlepool and is in the Core Collection of the National Register of Historic Vessels of the United Kingdom.
The affiliation aims to increase the understanding and importance of the Navy to Britain's heritage and to display the relationship between HMS Victory in Portsmouth (a first-rate ship of the line) and HMS Trincomalee (a frigate of the same period), typical examples of the British Fleet in the 18th and 19th centuries.
The NMRN was established to create, preserve, explain and celebrate the contribution made by the Royal Navy during its remarkable history of over 1000 years, in the defence of the UK and its overseas interests.
