She isnโt locked behind museum ropes - she sails, she teaches, she welcomes.
She has sailed through 90 years of history, but today, she faces a challenge she cannot weather alone. Her original 1936 Sitka spruce mast, in service since the day she was launched, has finally reached the end of its life. A temporary repair has kept her going for one last season, but to keep her sailing into 2027 and beyond, ๐ฎ ๐ณ๐๐น๐น ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฝ๐น๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ถ๐ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฎ๐น.
A new mast, crafted by Collars of Oxford to her exact 15.4m design, will restore her strength, balance, and authenticity. A ยฃ1,000 grant from National Historic Ships UK has kickstarted the effort โ but ยฃ๐ญ๐ต,๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐๐๐ถ๐น๐น ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฏ๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ถ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ to secure her future.
