SY Livadia, 1880

Engraving of Czar Alexander IIs steam yacht Livadia, built at John Elders shipyard, Govan, in 1880. This yacht was given a radical design, supposedly based on the shape of a turbot. This flat fish design, 235 foot long, 153 foot wide at its beamiest and with only 6 foot draught, was very unsuccessful, with passengers complaining of extreme seasickness. The Livadia was broken up in 1927

EDITORS COMMENTS
"This engraving captures the unique and radical design of the Czar's steam yacht Livadia, built at John Elder's shipyard in Govan, Scotland, in 1880. The yacht, named after the Czar's summer residence in Livadia, Crimea, was given an unconventional shape, reportedly inspired by the flat fish, the turbot. Measuring an impressive 235 feet in length and 153 feet at its widest point, with a shallow draught of only 6 feet, the Livadia was a sight to behold. However, the innovative design proved to be unsuccessful as passengers reported extreme seasickness due to the yacht's instability. Despite its shortcomings, the Livadia was a historical vessel, commissioned by Czar Alexander III for his personal use. The yacht's flat fish shape was a departure from traditional yacht designs of the time and marked a bold attempt to push the boundaries of naval engineering. Unfortunately, the Livadia's unpopularity among passengers led to its demise, and it was broken up in 1927." This image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the Livadia's distinctive design and the challenges faced by engineers in the late 19th century as they sought to create innovative and seaworthy vessels. The engraving is a testament to the importance of historical preservation and the ongoing fascination with the maritime history of the past.
