Given a name that was to become renowned throughout the seafaring world, and destined to win a place in the hearts of British seamen ~ second only to Nelson's own immortal HMS Victory ~ was the Cutty Sark. The Cutty Sark is the most famous tea clipper built, and is the only one to survive.

The name Cutty Sark comes from Robert Burns' poem, Tam O'Shanter; Tam meets a group of witches, most of whom are ugly, but for Nannie, who is young and beautiful and is described as wearing only a "cutty sark", i.e., a short chemise or shirt. The ship's figurehead is a representation of this witch. The Cutty Sark's sleek lines and enormous area of sail made her the fastest ship in the race via the Cape of Good Hope.

After the Second World war the Cutty Sark Clipper became surplus and eventually she was towed to Greenwich and placed in a specially constructed dry dock in 1954. After a lot of restoration work she was opened to the public in 1957. Since then more than thirteen million people have visited her.
