Gypsy Moth

 

Also in dry-dock, much smaller in size but no less in stature, was the Gypsy Moth IV (right of image). Those who recall the sixties will well-remember the name of Francis Chichester, who broke many records when he circumnavigated the globe in this vessel. The Gypsy Moth has been renovated and is now afloat again.

Well, the tour is nearly over. After spending the day in Greenwich you must be tired and thirsty - where should you go now?
