I just started this article. The featured ships I mainly found through Googling Wikipedia for 'ship replica'. As a result, most ships have a link and most ships are from Anglophone countries and the Netherlands. A general Google is desirable to give it a better balance.
f you put a ship replica here and start an article on it, please give it a link to here. DirkvdM 07:41, 27 August 2005 (UTC)
As the list is growing I would suggest to rankorder the replicas building dat of the original rather than current location. That way we see what bits of maritime history are now under investigation (e.g. Anc Egypt Ra2; 17th century, a number of VOC ships, etc). And which time periods are not represented. How do you think about that?Arnoutf 12:31, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
Perhaps we should order the ship information in a table format; or add a list of ship replicas article. Below my suggestion for such a table. How do you think about this?

PS does anybody know how to center in wikitables and does anybody know how to make a hyperlinked image.Arnoutf 20:36, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
What is meant by "Affiliation"? Flag (country) of original vessel, (or of replica)? Also, why do some say "private owner"? I know for a fact that neither Amistad or Lady Washington is owned privately. Pjbflynn 21:02, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
I think there is a slight bias towards the ships of the 1600–1700's. I will try to add some ships of different era (e.g. Viking longships) to give a more extensive overview of the replcias all over the history of shipping.
e.g. from http://home.online.no/~joeolavl/viking/index.htm
Help is welcome Arnoutf 09:30, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
I decided to order the ships in the new table format on year of construction rather than Alphabetical (name giving being a fairly arbitrary way of ordering ships). The ordering by building year has several advantages. (1) The development of ship types over time is easily followed byseeing the ship type column evolve. (2) The rise (and fall) of naval powers is easily followed by seeing country flags appear and disappear over time in that column; the same goes for the rise and fall of enterprises. These two bits of (IMHO) interesting information on the flow of history is lost by ordering the ships alphabetically. I think, the small benefit of quick lookup does not weigh against that.

On nl:Ark van Johan a new replica of the Ark of Noah is discussed. It also includes a replica in Maryland, USA. Could these be included in this article? Wiki-uk 17:37, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
Brig Amity – in Albany, Western Australia. Buffalo – near Glenelg in Adelaide, South Australia. Adventure World, an amusement park in Perth also has a ride called "Bounty's Revenge". Although how much the ride actually resembles the actual Bounty is up for debate. Gemfyre (talk) 14:15, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I've added in the two replica ships now at the Boston Tea Party Museum but I have a dilemma about the flags. Both sailed under there Red Ensign as members of the British Merchany Marine but were both actually owned by American colonial enterprises. What flag do I put in the Country column?
