摘要:In the 1850-s and 60-s Votkinsk’s State Plant took part in the program of re-equipment of the floating facilities of the Kronstadt and St. Petersburg military ports. These orders contributed to the technical re-equipment and expansion of the shipbuilding production at the plant, thanks to them the plant survived the reform period relatively painlessly, when state-owned factories went through difficult times. In the course of the work, a comparison was made of the office documentation of the factory documentation and the information of the Ship lists of 1864, 1879, 1881 and 1904. The career of barges of the Baltic fleet of Votkinsk construction was traced. All of them, except for the 90-foot and two 75-foot barges for the Sveaborg fortress, successfully served until 1904 and probably further. In the period 1857-1867 Votkinsk’s plant was able to completely re-equip the technical equipment of the St. Petersburg and Kronstadt ports of the Baltic Fleet, and even in 1904 they accounted for great half of the ships of these ports.
