1740 on…
Russia, because of its cheap slave/serf labor, produces 80% of the western world’s cannabis hemp and finished hemp products, and is, by far, the world’s best-quality manufacturer of cannabis hemp for sails, rope, rigging and nets. Cannabis is Russia’s number-one trading commodity – ahead of its furs, timber and iron.
1740 to 1807
Great Britain buys 90% or more of its marine hemp from Russia; Britain’s navy and world sea trade runs on Russian hemp; each British ship must replace 50 to 100 tons of hemp every year or two. There is no substitute; flax sails, for example, unlike hemp sails, would start rotting in three months or less from salt air and spray. |
