If they went to the museum I'd guess they would be more likely to be seen by the public and by academics. Gav Jeff -

For a long time I seemed to be the only one who valued them. I had worried that if something happened to me they'd be tossed out again. Does the Royal Yacht Club of Cowes, whose pennant a lot of these yachts fly, still exist or have a successor with their old archives?
