Strait of Magellan - Ambassador
Ambassador was an United Kingdom tea clipper built in 1869 (dimensions: 53.5 x 9.54 x 5.82 m). She was a composite clipper, built with wooden planking over an iron skeleton and was W. Lund & Co's first fast tea clipper. William Walker built Ambassador at Lavender Dry Dock in London.
Though considered a fast ship, Ambassador was said to be "very cranky and overmasted". Her first passage to the UK from Foochow came during the Tea Race of 1870 under Captain Duggan and took 115 days, a mediocre performance; that same year the fastest tea passage, also from Foochow, was made by the clipper Lahloo in just 98 days. Ambassador 's fastest passage between China and England was 108 days, in 1872.
Ambassador has been beached in the Strait of Magellan at Estancia San Gregorio, Chile since 1899. The wooden planks were used to build houses of the Estancia, which is now a "wreck" too. In 1973 Chile declared her a historic monument. But if you compare this image made in 2000 and the same wreck in 2015 (PiP), you can imagine, that sooner than later it will disappear. See the small person to the right for size comparison. The brown "things" on the beach are rusty iron parts by the way. - scanned slide, Minolta X700
