I don't think either of them were Copper Plated up to the waterline when built unlike the HDML " Marica" at Hartlepool, still they are both doing well when "Money's to tight to mention" to Copper Plate them these day. It was sad to hear last year of my Uncles old boat "John H Vincent ex "Lady Margaret" an ex 42ft R.N. Rowing Pinnace from around 1908 being scrapped. I did drive down to see her but picked the very day the Yard was closed, I was kindly offered the name board off her, if it had "Lady Margaret" chiselled on the other side I would have snapped his hand off.
A credit to their Boatbuilders now long gone. :cry:
