    Amazing presentation, information, and collection of workmanship by both ancient workers and today's workers. It really is a shame that this video series is not more suggested. I enjoyed all of this collection!

    This by far is the best description of the ship I have ever seen so far - thoroughly fascinating. All others just seem to focus on the external and the sinking, I've always been curious as to what lies beneath the decks etc you've answered that. I've been fascinated by this vessel since the 60s as a kid and indeed as we know AIRFIX took the plunge due to this interest and made a very respectable kit to make back then - a kit I always wanted back then, but never got. Now I have that kit, an original first pressing from when it first came out, this means the mouldings are pretty crisp. Your tour of the ship is amazing and as I'll probably never be able to visit the ship in person (I live in Australia) your tour equates to having a personal guide.
    ONE QUESTION I HAVE - was the ship painted below the waterline? I see many models with a white lower hull (below the waterline). Thanks

    That's crazy, they made parts that translate too an engine with that water pump, a cylinder, a piston, a connecting rod, a rocker arm...just wood and not metal... it's crazy to see something like a ship that was preserved from 1628, that is around the time my Great Grandfather George Felt (1601-1693)(he's on Wikipedia) reached Massachusetts Bay Colony, he was a founder of Charleston, Mass and North Yarmouth (later Yarmouth, Maine). It definitely seems like a much more ornimental, Viking type ship than the more utilitarian and functional type ships the English seemed to be building. Either way, it's unbelievable that organic materials like that were so well preserved under the ocean for all these years. Now the SS. United States, the quickest ocean liner in history and the flagship of our country is still floating and can still be saved and is being threatened with scrapping ...😢🤦🥺

    Översta Överlopp = Upper Orlop. It's a loan word from dutch which influenced more than just the ship but the language as well. Overloop verb. Overloopen, to run over/extend. So basically the upper part of the ship that extends from stem to stern.

    After viewing some videos about how and why the ship sank so quickly, a good possibility of what happened may have been that the cannons where not secured to their positions. Maybe you can confirm by where they found the cannons during the recovery process? But as the wind pushed on the ships sails, the ship leaned with the wind, the weight of the cannons may have shifted and the ship tipped over so far that they took on water through the gun ports. Weight distribution and securing all items are crucial to a ship like that to maintain balance and buoyancy. Aside from that great video, great recovery and I think she looks really good as she is. I would sail her. Thank you for the tour, history and I hope to one day make it there to see she her in person and your beautiful country.

    I think those gunports at the stern were doubling as king's toilet. I seriously doubt a king would squat together with sailors at the bow.

      So "vasa" refers to the type of ship, not just the name? Was this particular ship built by Dutch?

    • @DannyoRaiden
      @DannyoRaiden 8 місяців тому +1

      @@zyeslek was built in Stockholm just some kilometer from its disaster.
      I think that the engingier was dutch.
      One thing that differs from a flyute is the cannon so more of a swedish mix built. Flyute had less cannonspace so wasa was kinda larger to have many cannons
      Why it called wasa ship? Becouse wasa was an ett in sweden wasaetten like a familygroup where king wasa was in.

    As a swedish person, let me first say thanks for these uploads. Some of the info could be debatable but the background guitar sound/music makes this irritating listening to.

      "Some of the info could be debatable" Well he's pretty clear about that being the case... A lot of the "info" we have on the Vasa in general is guesses which are being debated all the time.
