|Transcription=The State of the Shipps<br />
<br />
Ffor their state we have surveighed both their carpentry and<br />
furniture<br />
<br />
Ffor carpentry his Ma&#91;jes&#93;ties M&#91;aste&#93;r Shippwrights and other skilfull<br />
M&#91;aster&#93;s of that facultie, whome wee joyned with them have<br />
the 11 shipps one ketch and 4 gallies laste manned, part<br />
not in being, and the rest of Irreparable and not fitt to<br />
be continued in charge, for the Reasons particulerly set<br />
downe in the Booke of Survey.<br />
<br />
They have allso discovered many Imperfections and decaies<br />
in the former 23 shipps of warre, 2 hoyes and lighter, which<br />
they have set downe likewise, particulerly in the same<br />
booke and estimated the necessary charges for the<br />
perfecte Reperacons thereof.<br />
<br />
Which for two of them the Rainbow and<br />
Anthelop being in drie docke at Debtford<br />
doe amount to -- £5379 11s 3d<br />
<br />
And for the Reste in harborough including<br />
Masts, yards, pumps, parells, shivers<br />
And Boates the some of -- £4541 0s 0d<br />
<br />
Totall -- £9920 11s 3d<br />
<br />
Ffor the ffurniture of all these Shipps wee have allso caused<br />
a diligent survey to be taken by the principall Masters of the Navy<br />
assisted with the Cheife Masters of the Trinity house, who have<br />
accordingly collected into Bookes the perticuler wants of<br />
every shipp both for Ringing and sailes.<br />
<br />
The defects of Ringing (as they shew) doe<br />
require for supplie of all sizes of cordage<br />
the full quantities of – 93 tonns 18c&#91;hundredweight&#93; 2qr&#91;quarter&#93; 12lbs<br />
<br />
Which in money at the price now paid coms to -- £3287 11s 0d<br />
<br />
The ---defects of sailes<br />
are allso set downe particulerly for every shipp<br />
in the survey booke thereof whereby appeareth that<br />
many shipps are alltogether unfurnished and<br />
few or none have full suits. Soe as the number<br />
of sailes wanting to set out the serviceable<br />
shipps are – 182 sailes<br />
<br />
The supplie whereof to be maide new would<br />
require a further charge of -- £2000<br />
<br />
Ffor Anchors there is a like survey taken and noe defecte found<br />

'''(2) Your experience of transcribing over the break - a couple of minutes from each of you'''<br />
<br />
- What worked? What didn't?<br />
- What online paleographical help have you used (MarineLives or other)?<br />
- Did you work with your assigned partner? Was that helpful?<br />
<br />
'''(3) Review and improve whatever you have done over the holidays'''<br />
<br />
- Let's all see if we can improve your work. Tricky words? Capitalisation? Latinate expressions?<br />
<br />
'''(4) Let's work together on some new pages'''<br />
<br />
- We propose we work today on a couple from HCA 13/68, where handwriting is very clear<br />

==Assignments to take us to our next meeting==<br />
<br />
For our next session, which will take place Tuesday 23 January, 4-6pm we would like you all to transcribe a document from HCA 13/72 a volume of depositions from 1657-59. At the very least transcribe one page, but preferably two. Please upload your transcripts to the webpage, and use square brackets to highlight any words/phrases that you're having difficulty with.<br />

Participation is voluntary and is not for academic credit.'''<br />
<br />
The programme will be of special interest to those with research interests in early modern global, maritime, commercial and material history.<br />
<br />
Biweekly sessions will be held in the second half of the autumn term 2017 and for the full spring term 2018, totalling eight sessions in all.<br />
<br />
All participating students will learn to read and transcribe C17th English notarial hands. We expect most, if not all participants, to be complete beginners and we have considerable experience of taking beginners to a good standard.<br />
<br />
Students will also be offered skills training in quantitative history in the spring term, building on their newly acquired palaeographical skills, should they wish to pursue this.<br />
<br />
Students interested in the programme are invited to look at the MarineLives wiki and specifically at a [[HCA_13/53|new volume of witness statements from 1637 and 1638]] - this will be the volume that we will be working on with Warwick students.<br />

He is a historian of the British and French Atlantics, with interests in early modern maritime networks, cultural geography, and transnational communities. His doctoral thesis ("The Atlantic Gate: The Anglo-Huguenot Channel Community, 1558-1685") examines Anglo-French mercantile networks in English Channel ports during the French Wars of Religion, when a militant alignment of Huguenot and Elizabethan elites oversaw a decades-long collaboration in privateering and experimental transatlantic plantation ventures. He argues that the maritime society of the Channel region produced merchant capital, maritime expertise, and formative models for northern trade and colonial settlement in the Americas. <br />
