Hi ,Jimmy ,I was on board the Scooner ,William and Mary yesterday ,no,one around so a crew member asked if I was looking for interest ,he showed me the timbers that have been replaced to bring her up to scratch this year ,what a beauty , and I told him there is a mate of mine ,lives next to the yard she was built in ,in 1902 , couple of interesting vessels in Albert Dock at the moment . and the Dutchman had a crew member sitting ,happilly splicing a mooring line ,he had a fairly good audience ,plus the crew were also using a Yacht varnish I ve never seen . interesting these sailing vessels ,I can see where you come from Jimmy .
