Sea Witch (clipper) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sea Witch (clipper)
The ''Sea Witch'' was an American clipper ship designed by naval architect John W. Griffiths for the China trading firm of Howland & Aspinwall. She was launched at Smith & Dimon in Manhattan on December 8, 1846. ==Model for American clipper ship design== "In 1845, John Willis Griffiths built the fast ship ''Rainbow'' and followed it in the next year with the even faster ''Sea Witch''. Both vessels would have tremendous impact on merchant hull design.〔Somerville, Col. Duncan S. ''The Aspinwall Empire,'' pp. 22-23, Mystic Seaport Museum, Inc., Mystic, Connecticutt, 1983. ISBN 0-913372-29-3.〕 ''Sea Witch'', in fact, had more influence on the configuration of fast vessels than any ship built in the United States. Vessels built in general accordance with the ''Sea Witch'' model were known as clippers, a term already well entrenched in the language of fast vessels."〔 〕
