A
few more views taken on the open day. Special thanks
to Roy - one of the crew members for his kind words
about the site and for getting in touch with me.
Roy
clears up a few points about the engine!
"the engine that you heard was the air compressor
for the bottles to start the main engine, this was
only got running on the previous Monday. Not bad since
it had been half underwater and had no oil in it."
We are now in touch with Roy and hope to bring you
regular updates on ship's progress along with hopefully
some pictures taken prior to the restoration, showing
just how much has been done.
Check back regularly.
