Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox short story "Cutty Sark" (Шаблон:Lang-ru) is a novella about the sailing ship Cutty Sark by the Soviet writer and paleontologist Ivan Yefremov. It was written in 1942–1943 and first published in the USSR in 1944.[1]

Intrigued by the history of the Cutty Sark, Yefremov produced a sketch about her, which ended with a beautiful version of dry-docking the legendary tea clipper in the United States. The story was translated into English and other languages. Yefremov's story may have influenced the preservation of the Cutty Sark,[1] which was reconstructed and dry-docked in Greenwich, London, 1954.

The feedback from English-speaking readers forced Yefremov to "upgrade" the storyline with some new facts from clipper's life.[1]

The story popularized the Cutty Sark in the USSR and Russia.
