Framed Print of H.M. iron-clad ram Rupert, 1874. Creator: Unknown
H.M. iron-clad ram Rupert, 1874. This ironclad ram and turret-ship, which is a twin-screw steamer, was launched at Chatham Dockyard in March of last year...She has since been fitted at Portsmouth Dockyard, and has, during the past month, made her trials of speed with fair success, doing twelve knots an hour. The Rupert was designed by the Department of the Controller of the Navy, Admiral Sir Spencer Robinson being then Controller, and Mr. E. J. Reed Chief Constructor...The total weight of armour, including the protecting deck-plating, worked into the ship, is over 1600 tons. Her armament consists of two 10-inch 18-ton muzzle-loading rifled guns placed in the turret, and two 64-pounder 64 cwt. guns at the after part of the upper deck. The 64-pounders may be fought either on the broadside or right astern. The total weight of one broadside is 684 lb. The ship is very lightly rigged on two masts, the rig being fore and aft, and the total area of sails is 8600 square feet. The engines, of 4200 estimated indicated horse-power, by Messrs. Napier, of Glasgow, are of the ordinary horizontal type, fitted with surface condensers, and working at 30 lb. pressure'. From Illustrated London News, 1874.
