HMS Surprise (former HMS Rose), replica, built in 1970, sold to 20th Century Fox in 2001.
My pretty, pretty boat! This is a lovely photoset.
Surprise! My baby!

I will forever be impressed that these guys actually climbed to the t’gallant yard.

Here’s a video I got when sailing Surprise on 1 December 2012. Sorry it took so long for me to upload it…
New follower!? Have the HMS Surprise wearing a Santa hat. (It’s on her figurehead). She’s also got a christmas tree attached to the top of her main mast but I couldn’t fit it in the picture when I took it… oh well.
This is all I need for Christmas… :)
Hee! I put that Santa hat and candy cane on the figurehead!
