Fascinating picture. Anyone know what the wind turbine was for - bilge pump, or below decks ventilation?

great shot
Translated Poorly said:
The wind turbine is most likely for a electric generator, atleast in some ships of the same age.
John Hughes said:
Yes, electric generator I think it must be. I was recently reading how Nansen had one installed aboard Fram on his drift across the north polar ice-cap in the 1890s.
Copper Kettle said:
Interesting. Maybe as oil becomes scarce there again will be ships propelled by sail, with wind and solar generators to power the automatic rigging systems, navigation, etc.
