Not so old really, but I feel it has been neglected lately, even though it is one of my favourite pieces that I’ve worked on. I should say ‘she’ rather than ‘it’. I am referring to the Captayannis or as I’ve always known her ‘The Sugar Boat’.
You may remember that I told the story about how she was shipwrecked on the sandbanks in the River Clyde, after she collided with a tanker back in 1974. This shipwreck evokes many memories of playing on the beach when I was a child, and always being able see her from where I was standing or playing.
