Should I work towards 'restoring' Border Maid, or should I maintain and adapt her to my needs.




I go along with, 'present needs' as long as these don't conflict with the overall look of the vessel. My pet hate is wheel-houses on prawners - as aesthetically pleasing as tractor wheels on an Aston Martin. Cleone may be very old, and froma distance is going to be as authentic as I can make her, but still has all the mod cons.. Well, I'm working on the idea of a fridge, anyway..
