Construction H.M.S. Detroit
The Detroit was brought to Presque Isle, until the declaration of peace. She was then sunk for preservation and raised in 1837 to be refitted as a merchant vessel. In 1841, the Detroit was sold to a group of merchants in Niagara Falls, New York. Sent down the Niagara River as a spectacle and political statement, she eventually broke up and went sailing over the falls. The flags from the H.M.S. Detroit are held at the Annapolis Naval Academy as spoils of war.
The full size replica of the H.M.S. Detroit will have the following dimensions (similar to those of the original vessel in 1813):
Length Overall: 40.21m (132')
Length on Main Deck: 36.60m (120')
Depth Keel to Main Deck at Midships (MLD): 4.16m (13'8")
