Does Anybody Know Where I Am Now?

 

Mr & Mrs Fairbairns bought her out of Orkney in  ???? and took her to Southwold.

 

Sold to Mr & Mrs Baylis in 1978 and kept at Lymington.

 

The Baylis's sold her in 1982 gentleman named Doug Miller.

 

She was then reportedly sold to a retired policeman and fell into a state of disrepair on a mooring at Dartmouth

 

Wooden Ships of Dartmouth were the last known brokers to sell her to presumably the present owners.

 

She was reported to have been in  a yard at Glampton on the River Dart for a major refit post 2000.

 

The yard apparently stripped her back to little more than a hull, an engine and a partial deck frame. 

 

In April of 2003 the work was nearing completion, and it is believed that the intention was to take the boat to the Netherlands.
