1. Title: The Steam Yacht Caledonia, Engineering Drawing (1819) The intriguing engineering drawing showcases the design of the steam yacht Caledonia, a groundbreaking watercraft that graced the waters in 1819. This illustration, a testament to the ingenuity of the time, offers a glimpse into the intricate workings of this early steam-powered vessel. The Caledonia, designed by James Watt and Matthew Boulton, was a significant milestone in the history of yachting and steam engineering. Watt, renowned for his improvements to the Newcomen steam engine, and Boulton, a partner in the renowned Soho Foundry, collaborated to create this innovative steam yacht. The drawing reveals the Caledonia's impressive dimensions, with a length of 34 meters (111 feet) and a beam of 6.7 meters (22 feet). The vessel's hull was constructed primarily of wood, with a metal-sheathed steam engine located towards the stern. The engine, powered by coal-fired boilers, generated steam to drive the paddle wheels, propelling the yacht through the water. The Caledonia was not only a marvel of engineering but also a symbol of luxury and status. The drawing reveals the yacht's elegant lines, with a spacious cabin deck, a raised forecastle, and a large stern deck. The vessel was equipped with all the amenities of a traditional yacht, including sleeping quarters, a dining saloon, and a galley. This engineering drawing offers a fascinating insight into the design process behind the Caledonia, a vessel that paved the way for the development of steam-powered yachts and boats. Its intricate details and innovative features continue to captivate engineers, historians, and enthusiasts alike, making it an essential piece of maritime history.
