Aship replica is a reconstruction of a no longer existingship. Replicas can range from authentically reconstructed, fully seaworthy ships, to ships of modern construction that give an impression of a historic vessel. Some replicas may not even be seaworthy, but built for other educational or entertainment purposes.

Reasons to build a replica include historic research intoshipbuilding, national pride, exposition at a museum or entertainment (e.g., for a TV series), and/or education programs for the unemployed. For example, see the project to build a replica of the ContinentalbrigAndrew Doria.^[1] Apart from building a genuine replica of the ship, sometimes the construction materials, tools and methods can also copied from the ships' original era, as is the case with the replica ofBatavia inLelystad and theship of the line replicaDelft^[2] inRotterdam (Delfshaven).

The term "replica" in this context does not normally includescale models. The termmuseum ship is used for an old ship that has been preserved and converted into amuseum open to the public.

A ship replica may also be a generic replica, one that represents a certain type of ship rather than a particular historic example, likeKamper Kogge, replicating theCogs that were used extensively in Northern Europe by theHanseatic League in theMiddle Ages, but where there is little knowledge of specific ships.

Some generic type replicas such asThor Heyerdahl'sRa II, qualify as true replicas as these ships were built to investigate the craft and or culture of the original era. That they do not replicate a specific vessel is mainly because no details of such a specific vessel are available.

Some other ships that are modeled after ships of a certain type or era (and are in that sense replicas) do not qualify as true replicas. Some ships may be borderline cases, such asKanrin Maru, which is actually twice the size of the original, but built following the plans of the original.

Replicas can be temporary, cheap and very simple, such as the replica of a Viking ship that was burnt at theLeixlip Festival.

Notable historic type ships that arenot replicas include:

• USS Constitution (1795) is strictly speaking not a replica but the original vessel. However, most of the ship's timber has been replaced over time, with only 10-15% of the original remaining.^[3] This is a modern version of the philosopher's dilemma concerning replica versus original; known as theShip of Theseus dilemma.
• HMS Victory (1765) is still the original vessel, although unlikeConstitution, she is in dry dock and does not sail. She has also been heavily restored, with only 10-15% of her original timber remaining.^[4]
• Mircea, which is an almost exact copy ofGorch Fock.Mircea was built as a copy becauseGorch Fock was a very successful ship. ThusMircea was not built as a replica per se, but as a copy for other reasons (i.e. to perform economically, in this case as a training vessel).
• Stad Amsterdam is a generic clipper type ship combining the best qualities ofclippers of the past with modern materials and technologies.

Another ambiguous case subject to the Ship of Theseus dilemma isNiagara. The original was sunk in 1820 for preservation, and the ship has been rebuilt three times since. The third reconstruction was considerably more extensive, and the only parts from the original which were retained are non-structural, leading many authorities to classify her as a replica, rather than a reconstructed original.
