Arthur Ransome’s Nancy Blackett is rated in the Top 200 classic boats of all time, as compiled by Classic Boat magazine and now posted on its website.

Nancy is number 78 in the listing, which was put together for Classic Boat’s 200th issue. She comes between two of Ransome’s other boats: Selina King (no. 45) and Peter Duck (no. 179). The full listing, with photos, can be seen here, along with an additional 50 boats chosen to mark the magazine’s 250th issue; a further 50 will be voted in shortly for the forthcoming 300th issue.
