My friends and I come from a ship which was destroyed by fire.

She could not face coffee or tea without milk, and was always craving types of food that were not available aboard a sailing ship.

The Indians who came aboard ship to collect the mail also interested her greatly, even if she was suitably shocked, according to the customs of the society in which she had been reared, to find them `` naked, except a piece of cotton cloth wrapped around their middle ''.

Four hundred and fifty pounds was disseminated while the ship was traveling a distance of 156 miles.

The order to abandon ship was given, but cries of pain could be heard from the wounded below decks.

The ship was a Waco biplane, one of the first two of its type to be fitted with the air cooled, 225/hp Wright radial engine known as the Whirlwind.

Just as it was being hauled inboard, a sea hit the ship.

When a sailing date of March, 1845 was finally established, Palfrey made sure that the Negroes would have comfortable quarters in New Orleans and aboard ship.

An ancient Rolls-Royce, as shiningly impressive as the day it came off the ship, was parked at the curb.

He said that drawings of the Dreadnought and printed details about the ship were found reproduced in an undeveloped roll of film taken from Lonsdale when he was arrested with the two civil servants outside the Old Vic theater Saturday afternoon, Jan. 7.

This was a training ship and the training would continue, but there was an element of frightful absurdity here which Alexander recognized.

Many years later, the photon-counting apparatus in the nose of the ship would determine that the star was close enough to actuate deceleration.

There was no reason to leave the comfortable quarters inside the ship, except that, faced with a possibility of sleeping on solid ground, they simply had to get out.

For Helva was destined to be the `` brain '' half of a scout ship, partnered with a man or a woman, whichever she chose, as the mobile half.

And very, very few were lost when the final connection was made to the control panels of ship or industrial combine.

On the anniversary of her sixteenth year in her shell, Helva was unconditionally graduated and installed in her ship, the Aj.

Her permanent titanium shell was recessed behind an even more indestructible barrier in the central shaft of the scout ship.

When she awoke, she was the ship.

Ra II, a ship built from papyrus, was successfully sailed across the Atlantic by Thor Heyerdahl proving that it was possible to cross the Atlantic from Africa using such boats in early epochs of history.

Another popular method of exploiting this bug was to simply use thrust to keep the ship in motion with 1 or 2 asteroids in the play field, allowing the player to pick off as many 1, 000 point UFOs as possible.

On some early versions of the game, it was also possible to hide the ship in the score area indefinitely without being hit by asteroids.

Agrippina was put aboard and after the bottom of the ship opened up, she fell into the water.

Cruise ships use antiroll fins that extend transversely from the side of the ship for perhaps 30 feet ( 10 m ) and are continuously rotated about their axes to develop forces that oppose the roll.

The ship designs, in particular, were regarded by Heyerdahl as similar and drawn with a simple sickle – shaped lines, representing the base of the boat, with vertical lines on deck, illustrating crew or, perhaps, raised oars.

Such an ion scoop will use electromagnetic funnels, or electrostatic fields to collect ionized hydrogen gas from space for use as propellant by ramjet propulsion systems ( since much of the hydrogen is not ionized, some versions of a scoop propose ionizing the hydrogen, perhaps with a laser, ahead of the ship.

The island was also known as Martin's Vineyard ( perhaps after the captain of Gosnold's ship, John Martin ); many islanders up to the 18th century called it by this name.

* Northern Light ( clipper ), a clipper ship, perhaps the fastest clipper ship of all time

Egyptian ship and boat models are perhaps some of the most enchanting and well-preserved types of ship models available to archaeologists.

In 1579 the British captain and erstwhile privateer Francis Drake sailed up the west coast of North America perhaps as far as Oregon or even British Columbia before returning south to land and make ship repairs.

Most versions of the story say that Hippolyta was so impressed with Heracles that she gave him the girdle without argument, perhaps while visiting him on his ship.

He is perhaps most famous for his discovery of perspective and for engineering the dome of the Florence Cathedral, but his accomplishments also include other architectural works, sculpture, mathematics, engineering and even ship design.

The ship took about three years to complete and was perhaps the most advanced warship of its time.

If so, it apparently had not been sufficiently marked as a hospital ship, perhaps owing to the chaos surrounding the collapse of military and civilian authority in Nazi Germany.

The Michigan Maritime Museum, host of the tall ship Friends Good Will, is perhaps its most famous.

John Baker has described them as " perhaps the single most influential series of named reports ", and even Francis Bacon, Coke's rival, wrote praisingly of them, saying " Had it not been for Sir Edward Coke's Reports ( which though they may have errors, and some peremptory and extrajudicial resolutions more than are warranted, yet they contain infinite good decisions and rulings over of cases ), for the law by this time had been almost like a ship without ballast ; for that the cases of modern experience are fled from those that are adjudged and ruled in former time ".

* Don't Look Back-The Boston ship is flying low or perhaps hovering over a grassy, crystalline planet.

* Third Stage-The Boston ship is either headed towards, or perhaps has just undocked from, a large flat spaceship resembling a bank of pipe organ pipes.

The ship dating to 3000 BC was about 25 m, 75 feet long and is now thought to perhaps have belonged to an earlier pharaoh.

By World War I, British light cruisers often had either two 6 inch ( 152 mm ) and perhaps eight 4 inch ( 100 mm ) guns, or a uniform armament of 6 inch ( 152 mm ) guns on a ship of around 5, 000 tons, while German cruisers progressed during the war from 4. 1 inch ( 105 mm ) to 5. 9 inch ( 150 mm ) guns.

She is perhaps best known for her public installation Ghost Ship ( 1998 ) in which a disused light ship was illuminated through use of luminous paint, in Scotman's bay, off Dublin's Dún Laoghaire Harbour.

The word " meerkat " is Dutch for " lake cat ", but the suricata is not in the cat family, and neither suricatas nor guenons are attracted to lakes ; the word possibly started as a Dutch adaptation of a derivative of Sanskrit markaţa मर ् कट = " monkey ", perhaps in Africa via an Indian sailor on board a Dutch East India Company ship.

Historically part of Cheshire, Birkenhead is perhaps best known as a centre for ship building, as a seaport and its related industries.

The ship will fly off the top of the screen and reappear at the bottom, corrupting the graphics and perhaps eventually crashing the game.

Because of his widespread effect and partly because so little exists that can now be linked to one of the world's greatest mariners and authors, it has been argued that the remains of his ship and the objects still remaining on the site at Ascension Island – while remaining the property of Britain and managed by Ascension Island – are perhaps best viewed as the shared maritime heritage of those parts of the world first visited or described by Dampier.
