Star of India

Maritime museum of San Diego San Diego, CA

Art print of the Star of India sailing under the Coronado Bridge from an original watercolor painting on a nautical chart by the Artist William B. MacGregor Jr.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Star of India is the forth oldest ship afloat in the US. The others are the USS Constitution 1797, Charles W. Morgan 1841, and USS Constellation 1854. Also, her hull, cabins, and equipment are nearly 100% original. The Star of India is an iron-hull full rigged sailing ship built in the United Kingdom in 1863 and was named Euterpe. (The muse of music). In 1897 after 21 world trip voyages she was sold to the Pacific Colonial Ship company. From 1898-1901 she made four voyages carrying lumber, coal and sugar.

In 1901 the Euterpe was sold to the Alaska Packers Association and re-rigged her as a Barque (convert square-rigged after-most mast to fore and aft) and she was renamed Star of India. In 1923 after 23 Alaskan voyages she was laid up because by that time steam power ruled the seas. In 1926 the Star of India was sold to the Zoological society of San Diego to be the centerpiece of their new museum. Plans were canceled due to the great depression and WW2 and restoration was not started until 1957 and finally completed in 1976. Star of India was finally sea worthy and is part of the Maritime Museum of San Diego.

William. B. MacGregor Jr. Watercolors Nautical Chart Artist

William B. MacGregor, Jr. was born in Medfield, MA, the son and grandson of Norfolk Hunt Club kennel masters. Many of his family members were self taught artists, woodcarvers, automobile mechanics and veterans of foreign wars including his father a WW1 US Army veteran. Bill is a graduate of Medfield High School, Wentworth Institute, and Northeastern University. His engineering career, from which he is now retired, included working for military and aerospace companies in industrial engineering and IR optics. His painting incorporates “old skool” mechanical and civil drafting tools and he uses a mixed medium of watercolors, acrylics and inks. Two rabbits are often in quite a few of his paintings. Look for them. He is frequently commissioned by United States Naval officers to create paintings of their ships and aircraft carriers on nautical charts. In May, 2018, and for one year, four of Bill’s automotive related paintings were on display at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, MA.
