I know its not 4x4 related in anyway, but I've just sen the pics in the paper of the Cutty Sark going up in flames.
Another piece of Britain's history destroyed. Arson is suspected. Why do these sick morons do this? A real shame. No doubt the Government will avoid giving any money to the restoration, as it would be supporting 'a shameful part of Britain's colonial past'. I stand to be corrected of course.

what they should have done is throw it back in the sea to douse the flames!

its a great shame, thankfully, masts, and all deck fittings that simply couldnt be replicated or replaced were all on dry dock,  as a forthcoming restoration was going to happen at somepoint

its a great boat having been to see it a few times being a boat heas meself  :lol:
