The Recouvrance is a full-scale reproduction of a avisoThe sloop was in the beginning a warship, of limited tonnage (brig, cutter, schooner) and fast, which was used as connection for the command or to ensure the communications between the various buildings and the terre (Source: wikipedia)., military boat of the beginning of last century, intended at the origin to transmit urgent folds or opinions for France. These functions were then extended to the monitoring and protection of the French trade ships on the coasts of Africa and in the Carribean. Five ships were built according to the standard "IRIS" plan, drawn by engineer Hubert, they all took part in these missions, with 50 to 60 men on board each.
The Recouvrance was built on the basis of these plans between 1991 and 1992, and has since then sailed and participated to all gatherings of historical sailing ships.
Short History of Half-Hulls: With the origin before becoming an object of marine decoration, the half-hull was a working tool for the carpenter of navy which was used of model and plan for the realization of the layout of the boat. The half-hull, represented with the 1/20ème, is still used nowadays. The half-hulls were often offered, by tradition, to the owner of the boat or were exposed to the building site.
The half-hull was a block of wood made up of an assembly of small planks carved by a carpenter to determine the future shapes of a boat. The small planks could be dismounted to visualize the watermarks. They made it possible to take measurements necessary in real size on the ground of the workshop in order to establish the layout of the frame.
The half-hulls of the Adze are carried out to leave various wood turpentines (paddouck, chestnut tree, wenge, mahogany tree...), on the old riggings (launches, barges, lobster boats, tuna boats, shelly, bisquines, sinagos, cutters...) or on the beautiful and prestigious sailing ships (Pen Duick, Shamrock, Endeavour, Requin, Dragon, Ranger, Britannia...).
