Looks like the Mary Rose now, just some crappy looking timbers.
Never visited the ship, I was never a fan as I used to slave over Airfix model kits, and the Cutty Sark was a fucker to do, a real fucker.
The insurance company will want to know why gas cylinders were on the ship and not safely stored elsewhere.

It was the fastest ship in the world at one time apparently, i hope it can be restored.

Wonder if the same is true for the 'USS Constitution'??
I love looking at the old sailing ships. There used to be a movie-made replica of the 'Bounty' in St. Pete but I stupidly never toured it when I had a chance. Everyone who does apparently is amazed at how small these ships were, back then.
