Rusty Barrels Posted December 19, 2006 Posted December 19, 2006 Rambling around The No Quarter given website I saw a sailing vessel called the Compass rose. I would like to know more about it, length, material makeup, where built. Beautiful Boat.
Rumba Rue Posted December 19, 2006 Posted December 19, 2006 I suggest you send an inquiry to Jamaica Rose aka Christine Lampe at NQG an ask.

Captain Jim-sib Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 She was at Pepsi-Sail in Beaufort, NC this July...all in her finery. She has a monster of a ship's cat, which, from chatting with the owners, really runs the ship. Don't know if the cat comes with the ship.
Red Cat Jenny Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Aye, she is a beauty to behold Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.... Her reputation was her livelihood. I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice! My inner voice sometimes has an accent! My wont? A delicious rip in time...
HarborMaster Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Its been for sale for a number of years now...., It truly is a beautiful thing. I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
jim hawkins Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 See what happens is this, the cartographer clicks on the screen where they want to place the compass rose, those lat/longs get sent to the compass rose program which calls the world magentic model 2005. Then the magnetic variation and declination are calculated for that position and the rose is rotated and place at that point. ...Oh wait, I thought you wanted to know where Compass Roses on nautical charts come from.....never mind.
