[MR] History Blog: Cog Raised from Dutch River

[Garth Groff via Atlantia]

Noble Friends,

My friend Lady Sophia just sent me this very neat post from the HISTORY 
BLOG. A 600 year-old cog has been successfully raised from a river in 
Holland. The ship is nearly intact, and will be stabilized and preserved 
for study and public viewing: http://www.thehistoryblog.com/ . There is 
also a companion SKY NEWS story which includes computer reconstructions 
of how the ship looked:

Yours Aye,
