Little Belt's shipbuilder[edit]

This article records the builder as Fugelsang of Copenhagen. The new website of the Danish Naval Museum records that the ship builder of this Little Belt is unknown (ukendt). The old ship register that is no longer on-line, but of which I have a copy for this ship, has a question mark against Copenhagen (byggested Kbh.?) as the shipyard, and Hohlenberg as the builder (konstruktør) Perhaps the Danes know better?

The article suggests the she was built to a design by Hohlenberg, which would be quite consistent with Fugelsang as her builder. We may need a third source to break the tie. Acad Ronin (talk) 19:23, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
