I sailed on MM in 1974 when run by the STA.
Who owns/operates her now? Any website pictures?

The Malcolm Miller arrived in Plymouth this evening. I'm not sure where she is berthed but I will see if I can get a picture of her tomorrow
in my travels around the sound/harbour.

Best I could get this morning but she looks brilliant. Registered Cyprus.

Magnificent! Such a happy conclusion to her long period out of action...I'll redirect readers of my Malcolm Miller thread from three years back, here.

Just been down to have another look at a more sensible time of day. The skipper told me they are on their way to Cyprus.
She has been re-rigged with out the gaff mizzen as they don't have 30 cadets handy to handle it. She looks stunning though.

I thought mizzen was always berm. Main and foremast s had gaffs. Thanks for sharing photos. Looking good.

Apparently they have been carrying out final checks before heading for the med - she will probably leave in the next few days - the quality of the refit is outstanding and a credit to the new owner

Was on for a trip in 1973. Went to Amsterdam. A bit of an eye opener for a young chap............:nonchalance:

Correct. Mizzen was responsible for a lot of the drive of the schooners.
