It's been at dock 2 on the barge for 10 years, right near where the One And All docks.

I heard about this old girl a number of years ago now.
Is this back in Adelaide now and are they restoring her?
Fabulous

[@weirdbikes]

Partial restoration, mostly preservation.

[@Tk-ou9ec]

@@weirdbikes okay.
Thank you

I wonder if they had to get a timber inspection and treatment certificate.

That's not a clipper ship. Clippers were flush deck. Look at Cutty Shark. It looks like it has gun ports like 4th rate.

You are correct that the ship was in fact built to carry heavy cargo, unlike clipper ships, however clipper was a vague term applied to any fast ship
