Model of a Jury Rudder, Model of an emergency rudder made of rigid bunches bound between boards. The clusters that protrude above the leaf are tied together in a leather stocking. The back of the rudder blade is reinforced with a long bar, the front with three shorter ones. The rudder sets have been replaced by chains in three places, from which lines on either side probably run to the deck. The steering was probably done by means of the hoist mounted on the heel. The blade is also provided with care ropes., anonymous, 1853, wood (plant material), brass (alloy), rope, leather, h 71 cm × w 12 cm × d 3.5 cm
