Talk:Estrella de Chile (ship)

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Why is the Estrella de Chile referred to as a barque? The accompanying picture shows her clearly ship-rigged. The mizzen has mainsail, upper and lower topsail and royal spars. Should the text be changed to 'ship'? 195.137.46.194 (talk) 09:45, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The source describes her as a barque and the image is an oil painting. We don't know whether the artist saw the ship and in what configuration. Philafrenzy (talk) 10:20, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
