Great experience and she is so beautifully built. I remember seeing her as the 'Erasmus', in the the 1980s miniseries 'Shogun'. I was told she rarely drops anchor and it is taken up by the engine, but I was suprised to see that all the cannons were cast iron!! The crew have stayed in Shoreham an extra week due weather, and may even have to stay longer before leaving for a two day trip to Dublin.
