List of longest wooden ships

This is a list of the world's longest wooden ships. The vessels are sorted by ship length including bowsprit, if known.

Finding the world's longest wooden ship is not straightforward since there are several contenders, depending on which definitions are used. For example, some of these ships benefited from substantial iron or even steel components since the flexing of wood members can lead to significant leaking as the wood members become longer. Some of these ships were not very seaworthy, and a few sank either immediately after launch or soon thereafter. Some of the more recent large ships were never able or intended to leave their berths, and function as floating museums. Finally, not all of the claims to the title of the world's longest wooden ship are credible or verifiable.

A further problem is that especially wooden ships have more than one "length". The most used measure in length for registering a ship is the "length of the topmost deck"—the "length on deck" (LOD)—'measured from leading edge of stem post to trailing edge of stern post on deck level' or the "length between perpendiculars" (LPP, LBP)—'measured from leading edge of stem post to trailing edge of stern post in the construction waterline (CWL)'. In this method of measuring bowsprit including jibboom and out-board part of spanker boom if any have both no effect on the ship's length. The longest length for comparing ships, the total "overall" length (LOA) based on sparred length, should be given if known.

The longest wooden ship ever built, the six-masted New England gaff schooner Wyoming, had a "total length" of 137 metres (449 ft) (measured from tip of jibboom (30 metres) to tip of spanker boom (27 metres) and a "length on deck" of 107 m (351 ft). The 30 m (98 ft)-difference is due to her extremely long jibboom of 30 m (98 ft) her out-board length being 27 m (89 ft).

140 m (450 ft)	15.3 m (50 ft 1 in)	Wyoming	1909–1924	sunk	This ship had a tendency to flex in heavy seas, causing the planks to twist and buckle due to their extreme length despite being fitted with metal bracing. Water was evacuated nearly constantly by steam pumps. It foundered in heavy seas with loss of all hands.
130 m (425 ft)	35 m (116 ft)	Solano	1878–1931	scuttled	A paddle steamer used to ferry passengers and trains across the Carquinez Strait between Benicia and Port Costa, California. At the time of its construction, it was the largest ferryboat ever built. Unlike its later sister, the Contra Costa which had a steel hull, the wooden-hulled Solano had tall masts in the center of mass ("hogposts") anchoring several wires ("guys") that strengthened the hull against the weight of the trains.^[1] The ferries were scuttled after the completion of the Benicia-Martinez railroad bridge.
115.0 m (377.3 ft)	22.2 m (72.8 ft)	USS Dunderberg (later Rochambeau)	1865–1874	broken up 1874	Ironclad built in New York City, originally intended for the United States Navy during the American Civil War, but eventually sold to the French Navy. About 50 feet (15 m) of her length was a ram. She was not particularly stable or seaworthy and only made one oceanic voyage to reach her new owners.
108 m (356 ft)	15.4 m (50 ft)	Columbus	1824–1825	sunk	First timber ship or disposable ship^[2] with a four-masted barque rigging. Built in Quebec to avoid taxes on timber, her cargo and components were intended to be sold after the ship's arrival in London; however, the owner had only the cargo sold and ordered the ship back for a second voyage with a timber cargo; the ship broke apart and sunk in the English Channel.
108 m (354 ft)	15.4 m (50 ft)	Adriatic	1857–1885	beached and abandoned in 1885	SS Adriatic was the largest passenger ship in the world when she was launched. She displaced 5,233 tons at her design draft of 20 feet (6.1 m).^[3] Her hull was constructed of live and white oak, reinforced with iron strapping 5 inches (13 cm) wide and .875 inches (2.22 cm) thick. It was divided into eight watertight compartments, with bulkheads 6 inches (15 cm) thick between them.^[4] She was built for the Collins Line, but only did one roundtrip before that firm failed, partly because of Adriatic's high cost.
105.8 m (347 ft)	15.2 m (50 ft)	Eleanor A. Percy	1900–1919	sunk	Six-masted schooner with hull measuring 323.5 feet and 347 feet including the bowsprit,^[5] that foundered off Ireland on December 26, 1919.^[6]

However, after several delays in construction, it was found already obsolete at the time of launch and it spent most of its career in storage at a harbor. It was a school ship between 1894 and 1918, when it was put again in storage due to poor maintenance, and was never fit for service again.^[29]
64.05 m (210.1 ft)	18.11 m (59.4 ft)	Valmy	1847–1891	scrapped	Largest three-decker of the French Navy and largest tall ship ever built in France. Unlike other sail ships of its time, it was never modified for steam power despite being difficult to manoeuvre, and often had to be towed by smaller steam ships during its service in the Crimean War. It was turned into a school ship in 1864.
64 m (210.0 ft)	17.3 m	USS Pennsylvania	1837–1861	burned to prevent capture	Largest and most heavily armed American wooden sailing warship. It mounted 120 guns and made only one voyage.

Later on, Duquesne was used as floating barracks, and Tourville as a prison ship for survivors of the Paris Commune.
61.3 m (201.1 ft)	16.2 m (53 ft)	Santísima Trinidad	1769–1805	scuttled after capture	One of the few four-deckers ever built with 136 guns.^[30] Reputed to be the largest warship in the world until surpassed by the French Ócean class in the early 1790s. It sailed poorly and was nicknamed "The Ponderous" and "El Escorial of the Seas". Despite this, it saw extensive action in the American Revolutionary War and the Napoleonic Wars, even surviving and escaping successfully after being attacked by four warships and losing all her sails at the Battle of Cape St. Vincent. It was ultimately captured and scuttled after the Battle of Trafalgar. A non-seaworthy replica and a ship fit in its likeness (and thus not a true replica) exist in Alicante and Málaga, respectively.
61.06 m (200 ft 4 in)	10.8 m (35 ft 5 in)	Lammermuir	1864–1876	lost at sea	An extreme composite clipper, built to replace the ship of the same name wrecked the year before, which had been the favorite of the company owner, Jock Willis. Disappeared while sailing from Adelaide, Australia to London.

304.8 m (1000 ft)	晉 Wang Jun's tower ship	3rd century AD	The largest of the armored floating fortresses (louchuan) that were used as flagships of river flotillas during the Han and Jin dynasties. According to the Tang dynasty's Taibai Jinjing, it was used on the Yangtze during the Jin conquest of Wu and was equipped with special hanging galleries to transport horses and war chariots. Though oar-powered only, tower ships tended to lose control when faced with wind changes, and this caused their abandonment.
144–180 m (472–591 ft),^[33] or 88.56 m LOA (290 ft) and 80.51 m (264 ft) LOD.^[34]	Pati Unus's jong	c. 1512	Javanese seagoing junk type claimed to carry up to 1000 passengers. Though the early 16th century Portuguese did not record exact sizes, they remarked that the ships were so monstrously big that Flor do Mar and Anunciada (the largest Portuguese ships of the time) did not seem ships when next to them.^[35] Irawan Djoko Nugroho estimate it to be 4–5 times the length of Flor do Mar, which was about 36 m long (Malaysian reconstruction).^[33] His estimation has been contested as it is not based on engineering grounds, Muhammad Averoes estimated it with an LOA of 88.56 m and LOD of 80.51 m.^[34]

However, this has been disputed.^[39]^[40]^[41]^[42] Xin Yuan'ou, a shipbuilding engineer and professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, argues that it is highly unlikely that Zheng He's treasure ships were 450 ft long, and suggests that they were probably closer to 200–250 feet (61–76 m) in length,^[43]^[44] other estimate were 309–408 feet (94–124 m) in length and 160–166 feet (49–51 m) in width.^[45]
128 m by 18 m (420×58 ft)	Tessarakonteres	Late 3rd century BC	A Greek galley with 40 lines of oarsmen (for a total of 4000), from which her name derives. It reportedly had an additional crew of 400 and could transport 2850 soldiers according to Athenaeus and Plutarch. She was built for Ptolemy IV Philopator.^[46]^[47]^[48]^[49] Modern naval engineers have speculated that the ship, of which there is no surviving depiction, had two twin hulls rather than one. According to Plutarch the ship proved difficult and dangerous to move during tests. As early as the 19th century, the dimensions of the ship have been contested since it caused several problems in terms of maneuverability and structural integrity.^[50]
110 m (360 ft) ^{[dubious – discuss]} or 70–75 m (230–246 ft) according to modern estimates^[51]	Leontophoros	c. 280 BC	A warship (octere) built for Lysimachos. After his death, it was used by Ptolemy Keraunos to defeat Antigonus I in a battle in 280 BC. The length estimate is based on Memnon of Heraclea's claim that each line had 100 oarsmen, bringing the total to 1600.^[52]
100 m (328 ft) length 17 m (56 ft) breadth^[53]	Cakra Dunia	Before 1629	Acehnese 98-gun galley class numbering 47 units. One captured by the Portuguese was renamed the Espanto do Mundo ("Terror of the Universe"). Armed with 18 large cannons (five 55-pounders at the bow, one 25-pounder at the stern, the rest were 17 and 18-pounders), 80 falcons and many swivel guns. It was claimed to have three masts with square sails and topsails, 35 oars on each side, and a crew of 700 men.

c. 63–95 m by 27–32 m	Hatshepsut's barge	c. 1500 BC	Used to transport obelisks.^[57]^[58]^[59] The barge may have been "too large to be equipped with a sail and not very manoeuvrable", and "would have been towed downstream by smaller vessels, also using the current, from Aswan to Thebes."^[60]
55 m (180 ft) long, 14 m (46 ft) wide^[61]	Syracusia (later Alexandria)	c. 240 BC	Claimed to be the largest transport ship in Antiquity. She was designed by Archimedes and built by Archias of Corinth on the orders of Hieron II of Syracuse. It sailed only once to Alexandria, Egypt, where it was gifted to Ptolemy III Euergetes and permanently berthed.
