By 1850, this journey was halved. For instance the clipper ship Oriental was able to sail from Hong Kong to London in 97 days that year. The absolute one day distance record made by a clipper involved 436 nautical miles. Clipper ships were fast but no specific rig type was standard. By 1845, the term was used in conjunction with a name indicating the cargo carried or area served by a fast-sailing vessel and a specific rig type was usually indicated.
The Riverfront area of Greenwich is one of the most interesting areas to explore. Here you can find the Cutty Sark, a historic clipper ship built in 1869, now the only remaining nineteenth-century tea clipper. In 1871 the clipper broke the world sailing record by traveling from China to London in just 107 days.
