scrapped.On the plus side is news that plans to reactivate the classic
motor vessel Balmoral, which has been laid up in Bristol for many years, seem to be coming to fruition.As with all such projects, funding is very tight, and the Balmoral Strategy Group, which is managing the project, are appealing for support.
