Support the project - How?

• By providing information about the vessel and those communities and people associated with her so that a complete history can be put together.

• By sponsoring materials for her restoration. So far no funding has been sought but the latter part of her restoration is the most costly. I have received some materials, such as a new propeller shaft and I have made and purchased many items, such as her re-built Gardner engine. From time to time I will list what items I am short of and their cost so that those who wish to donate can do so. If someone wishes to order a specific item(s) for the project rather than sending money, that would be great. Just let me know.

      Second-hand items are fine if they are still serviceable or if they can be repaired or modified. All donations will be acknowledged on the             website.  Many Thanks
