| The Grand Turk is a replica of an 18-century Man of War and was launched in Marmaris, Turkey on 12 August 1997. During the building more than 250 cubic metres of timber were used, employing the skills of 60 local craftsmen and 30 specialist shipwrights, riggers and engineers from the UK. The Grand Turk starred in the series of Hornblower as the British ship 'Indefatigable' and the French ship 'Papillon'. This dual role was achieved by painting one side red to represent 'Papillon' and the other side yellow to represent 'Indefatigable'. |
