SV Tenacious

Taken yesterday afternoon as just outside the entrance to Portsmouth Harbour. I would have liked to have seen her in full sail, but she is still beautiful like this.

The SV Tenacious is a modern British wooden sail training ship, specially designed in the 1990s to accommodate anyone over 16 with a disability. When completed in 2000, it was the largest wooden ship to be built in the UK for over 100 years. (Info from Wikipedia).

Best viewed large, on black. Thank you.
