Charles W. Morgan is an American whaling ship built in 1841 that was active during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Ships of this type were used to harvest the blubber of whales for whale oil which was commonly used in lamps. Charles W. Morgan has served as a museum ship since the 1940s and is now an exhibit at the Mystic Seaport museum in Mystic, Connecticut. She is the world's oldest surviving (non-wrecked) merchant vessel, the only surviving wooden whaling ship from the 19th century American merchant fleet (of an estimated 2,700 built), and second to the USS Constitution, the oldest seaworthy vessel in the world. The Morgan was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1966.

  • Die Charles W. Morgan ist ein hölzernes Walfangsegelschiff und das einzig erhaltene seiner Art in der Welt. Zur Zeit seines Baus gab es mehr als 730 Schiffe dieser Art. Am 21. Juli 1841 lief das Vollschiff auf der Werft von Jethro & Zachariah Hillman nach einer Konstruktion von Jethro Hillmann in New Bedford im US-Bundesstaat Massachusetts vom Stapel. Es wurde nach dem Quäker und Kaufmann Charles Waln Morgan, ihrem Haupteigner, benannt. Das Schiff hatte einen Holzrumpf, das Unterwasserschiff war gegen Wurmfraß und Bewuchs mit Kupferplatten abgedeckt. Der Bug hatte einen recht steilen Vordersteven von 75° mit kleinem Galion und Krulle (Volute). Das Heck war als Plattgatt ausgeführt. Ein goldener Adler schmückt es, darunter steht der Schiffsname und der Heimathafen in goldenen Lettern. Kapit (de)
  • Charles W. Morgan är ett amerikanskt valfångstfartyg som sjösattes år 1841 i New Bedford i Massachusetts i USA. Hon är det enda kvarvarande av en flotta på mer än 2 700 segelfartyg som drev valfångst och är idag museifartyg i i Connecticut. Då valindustrin i New England var på tillbakagång flyttades fartyget i stället till San Francisco, varifrån hon gjorde elva valfångstresor i Stilla havet ända till Japanska havet och Ochotska havet. År 1906 återvände hon till New Bedford och gjorde ytterligare sju resor innan hon lades upp i Fair Haven i Massachusetts år 1921. (sv)
