About This Design

Clipper Ship Flying Cloud - Blueprint ABD Mouse Mat

Clipper Ship Flying Cloud - Blueprint ABD Mouse Mat

This striking blue-print style poster depicts the historic American clipper ship Flying Cloud, a vessel celebrated for its remarkable speed and graceful design. Built in 1851 in East Boston by famed shipbuilder Donald McKay, the ship represented the pinnacle of clipper ship engineering during the golden age of sailing commerce. The white linework against the deep blue background resembles traditional engineering blueprints, giving the image a technical yet artistic quality. The illustration reveals the ship’s elegant hull and towering three-mast rig. Each mast carried multiple yards supporting large square sails, while an intricate network of rigging lines stabilised the masts and controlled sail positions. This complex arrangement allowed the Flying Cloud to capture powerful ocean winds and maintain exceptional speeds over long distances. Clippers were specifically designed for fast trade routes, transporting valuable cargo such as tea, silk, and goods associated with the California Gold Rush. Owned by the New York shipping company Grinnell, Minturn & Co., the Flying Cloud became famous for its record-breaking voyage from New York City to San Francisco in 1854. The journey took only 89 days and 8 hours, setting a sailing record that stood for many years and showcasing the incredible performance of clipper ships navigating the long route around Cape Horn. Measuring roughly 225 feet in length and displacing about 1,782 tons, the Flying Cloud combined size, strength, and speed in a beautifully balanced design. This poster-style blueprint captures both the technical sophistication and historical significance of one of the most celebrated sailing ships ever built.

Seems to be made of good quality rubber, it is thicker than my current one, which really shows that they have taken their time to get quality materials. So far so good , i am very pleased. The product is very vibrant and exactly as it shows on the website!
