Just to finish this off I went to the Norfolk Wherry Trust at Ludham on the river Thurne today to give my model of the Albion to them and to have a chance to have a good look round a working Wherry and to take some pics . A bit of luck Maud was moored next to the Albion so had a look at her to as she is a bit different from the Albion as she is clinker built and a bit longer by 2ft .Any ways had a nice cup of tea with the members of the Trust that keep this stunning craft afloat . The pics of the model and my mugshot will be on ther web site in the next week or so poor them  Hope you like the pics rgd Martyn Martyn Ingram attached the following image(s): Building ?
