I aquired Sonnet, 1539, about 4 yrs ago after she had just been redecked, painted and varnished.
She has just undergone another over haul with 3 planks being partially replaced amd once again repainted and varnished, so hopefully she'll see another 50 yrs. I do not know any of her history so can anyone can fill in some gaps.

Hi Mr B,
I have been going through some archive pics of PBSC and come across some pics of Sonnet in the 1958 Martello race (far left). There may be more comming soon here;
