Greetings to the Court of Princess Sheila ! We have been restoring the 120 years old Albert Strange yacht Sheila, and now she is back in the water !
She was launched on the Isle of Man in 1905 and as been sailing ever since, thanks to her many lovers. I must add to the list Loïc and the shipwrights team at Chantier de la Bascatic (https://www.facebook.com/61569110645783/albums/122107148438637021/). They can be very proud of their work and I am very grateful to them.
This is episode 12 and the final episode on the restoration. In this episode we are “guilding the lily” so that Sheila is pretty and fit for her birthday. A special thank to Melanie Griffon (https://griffonmelanie.blogspot.com/ ) – the latest addition to a long list of talented artists who worked on Sheila
Cheers from France !
