Source notes
Italic type as in printed source. One half fraction has horizontal stroke in printed source. The inventories were compiled by or on behalf of William Soper, Keeper of the King's Ships.[2]
The editor provides glosses for the technical terms occurring in the passage:
Hawser] Also 'hauncer' in these inventories, large rope or, more properly, middle sized cable.[3]
Forestay] A "[s]tanding rigging leading forward"[4]
IRHB comments
Susan Rose's translation. The editor of the inventories dates them 1422–27,[5] but since a reference to letters patent dated 5 March 1423 occurs in the preamble to the inventories,[6] I date them 1423–27. This entry partially duplicates one made on the preceding page of the MS; see 1423 - Inventory of Keeper of King's Ships (2). At least during the period in question, the home port of the Petit John was Southampton. For discussion see Petit John (Southampton).
