Schooner WANDER BIRD, now ELBE 5

[Nicholas Carey]

WANDER BIRD (now returned to her original name of Lotsenschoner N° 5 ELBE) has a home on the web (German really, really helpful):

Her family:
http://www.lotsenschoner-no5-elbe.org/

The museum that owns her:
http://www.stiftung-hamburg-maritim.de/

It looks like they've been doing a whole lotta work to her.

A whole lot of pictures at http://www.lotsenschoner-no5-elbe.org/Bilder/Seite1.html

including a picture of the AGA cooker that Dave Fleming was fondly reminiscing about (see http://www.lotsenschoner-no5-elbe.org/Bilder/Bilder-Bilder/23.jpg — 164k)

It looks like she's available for charter, too.

Hope Roger Morris sees this!

What is the thing with the handle between the bench and the beam?

What is the thing with the handle between the bench and the beam? Looks like some sort of jack to me. Though why it is sitting on a piece of cabinetry holding up a deak beam, I can't say.

Hey, with tongue firmly in cheek, could it be a big, really big, can opener!!!!?
