Mistral after the hard work


Mistral after the hard work

Finished with a 5L2 with open flywheel interesting if you let the water up to the bottom of the wheel.  She was sold in the 70s to an Australian living in London.  Last we heard he was chained to the pier in Ayr after having to be towed back in in bad weather.  He left the porthole open in the engine room and went out in bad weather when he saw the water being thrown up in the engine room he stopped the engine.  couldn't restart after as the batteries were under the port hole.  Don't know if she got to London or not.  Would like to know if anyone can remember her trip.
