Steel barque Vincennes (1910)
The three-masted French steel barque Vincennes (84.6 m x 12.3 m) in full sail in Australian waters. My restoration and colorization of Allan C. Green´s image in the Victoria State Library archive. No date is given, but my estimate is that Green took this photo in ab. 1910.
The Vincennes was built in 1900 by Chant. Nantais de Construction Maritime for Nantes based Soc. Anonyme des Longs Courriers Français. She ran aground on Mavis Beach (Sydney) in 1906, but was refloated. Broken up in 1926.
