Cutty Sark was built at Dumbarton on the Clyde, England, in 1869 specifically for the new trade traffic with the Far South East & Africa. Competition between the clipper ships in those days as the steam engine and the opening of the Suez Canal made sailing less and less relevant, was extremely intense and linked to survival. The Cutty Sark was designed to beat Thermopylae, one of the best and finest clippers ever built. She has been at the Greenwich Museum since 1954.
