All Aberdeen Built Ships

Aberdeen Built Ships

Aberdeen Built Ships is a database of over 3,000 ships recorded as being built in Aberdeen, and the shipyards which built them. It contains extensive information about the vessels including technical details, stories discovered from original sources, data from the Lloyd’s Register of Shipping, newspaper accounts and information passed to us by relatives and researchers. The project started over 20 years ago with support from the Heritage Lottery Fund, and our database has grown through the dedication of long-standing volunteers who continue to research the histories of Aberdeen Built Ships.
