I found this article interesting.  I hope there is a heritage option out there.

How time fly's I remember seeing her building at swans then later an mod invite to her comishioning when she seamed so very new I shure must be getting older when robin

Age, my friend, is all relative. In my case, it is relatives that remind me that I am older than dirt...

 

I wonder if they would consider a cross cultural location - she would look awesome moored here in Eastport, or maybe as the border bridge at the narrows in Lubec....

I see it's being sold for recycling only.

 

I'll bet that somewhere there's a billionaire who would have have bought it as a mega-yacht he could land and take off from in his private jet.
