I have seen both the original Mary Rose in Portsmouth and used Rod's Mary Rose in
Bucketty and can confirm that neither are sea worthy but that Rod's makes for the better
telescope. |
LOL!!
I saw the original Mary Rose at the Maritime Museum in about 1995/6, and it blew me away!
Although the telescopic version of the Mary Rose may not be seaworthy, it did survive a light drowning in Tooheys Old, courtesy of the big dip at Binnaway, en route to Coonabarabran, when a case of beer was smashed, in the trailer in close proximity to the mirror box. I shudder at the memory!
Thanks for heads up re the show, I will catch it online this week.
