Description

The National Museum of the Royal Navy (NMRN) is leading on the conservation of HMS Victory to ensure the long-term preservation of this world-class historic vessel and exemplar of a Royal Navy capital warship from the Age of Sail. The aim of the HMS Victory Conservation Project is to deliver a fully-conserved ship, able to survive in an open environment for the next 50 years without major work beyond a programme of planned maintenance. Conservation works began in early 2022. The project scope includes the replacement of all external planking and some internal elements and the progressive re-rigging of the ship. The NMRN is now looking for a five (5) year call-off contract with a laboratory to undertake testing of candidate materials for use in the rigging of the ship
