Swordfish (clipper) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Swordfish (clipper)
''Swordfish'' was an 1851 clipper ship which has been called William H. Webb’s masterpiece. She is known for her record-breaking race to San Francisco with the clipper ''Flying Fish''.
“On her first passage out to San Francisco a race was arranged for large stakes between her and the ''Flying-fish'', a Boston record-breaker, built by the great designer, Donald McKay. The ''Sword-fish'' won, making the trip in ninety-two days,—the second best record ever made,—her rival taking ninety-eight days.” 〔 〕
