Title: Modelling 'YORKSHIREMAN' as the 'MARECHIARO'
Post by: ixion on February 12, 2010, 06:37:03 pm

Evening,
I have the chance to get hold of a built 'Yorkshireman' however I like to model boats currently in service. I believe the Yorkshireman was renamed Mira A and maybe something else before being sold to a Italian shipping company RIMORCHIATORI NAPOLETANI and renamed 'Marechiaro'. I have managed to find about 4 pictures of her on the net. Does anyone have any more information or pictures on the 'Marechiaro' please?

Thanks Andy, just found a picture of her in 2007 as 'Mira A' in Great Yarmouth.
