Patrick, are you related to Brian (I think that was his name) from Hull by any chance who at one time owned 440?

Thank You Patrick,
The last time I saw 440 was at Hull Marina, must be over 15 years when the chap had her, the next time I went to look for her she was still there but he had sold her and bought another interesting vessel called 'John Vincent'. Looking back through the posts I see the photograph of a vessel hanging in lifting strops, she was also in Hull at the time, although not an ST she was also interesting and if my memory serves me correctly she and one other were built for the Shah of Persia regime but not delivered due to the change of management out there. Her sister ship I believe went to the U.S. As others have commented it is good to see 440 is still going strong and a credit to those who have owned her and have spent so much time and money keeping shipshape. |

Can I ask if there is another photograph of the vessel hanging from the strops in this section, have I got it wrong or is it a modified Broadbeam ST? Unfortunately at the moment I cannot locate my photographs of the Shah vessel to compare. Thank You.

It could well be the angle at which the photograph was taken which has me a bit puzzled in regards to shape of the Wheelhouse. |
