1974-2024: Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the original Swallows and Amazons film
Hutchinson family attended Boat Show with visit to Swallow top priority. Not disappointed. Very well presented and pleasing to view in conjunction with traditional sailmaking and ropemaking displays. Kids looking forward to sailing her one day.
Looks like they did excellent work, a nice restoration.
Congratulations, cannot wait to see her sailing.
and very nice she looks too!
But only one at the Boat Show I hope: “Swallow, a boat used in the film adaptation of Swallows and Amazons” .
Hope to see you on the Classic Boat stand this week.
That’s a lot of Swallows: http://arthur-ransome.wikia.com/wiki/Boats_called_Swallow
