The "Titania" Schooner Yacht, built for Mr. Robert Stephenson, C.E., 1850. Creator: Unknown.

The "Titania" Schooner Yacht, built for Mr. Robert Stephenson, C.E., 1850. 'In the water the Titania very much resembles the Bermudan schooners...she looks long, low, and rakish, with her two tall masts sloping considerably aft...She is formed on the wave-principle of Mr. Scott Russell, and is in many respects very remarkable. She is entirely of iron, and the greater part of her ballast is built into the vessel, so as to form almost part of it. She also possesses the extraordinary roominess, or capacity inside, for cabins and accommodation...The external appearance of the vessel is as handsome as her interior: her shape is made of the fine form calculated to go through the water with least disturbance, and she has every look of a good sea-boat. All her lines are smooth and even, and of good workmanahip. She was built by Messrs. Robinson and Russell, at their ship-building-yard and engine-works, at Millwall...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
