Yes, we had a look yesterday. Amazing!
This frigate is a replica of Peter the Great’s famous flagship Shtandart, dating back to 1703, and was built by volunteers.
Well worth a donation to take a look around.

I chatted up one of the pirate deck crew. He said the ship spends her winters mostly in Holland and the then the Med and the Balkans. Not yet gone as far as the West Indies. She looks beautiful but a bit low in the water for me! And getting into the crow's nest was 'exhilarating' in a high sea!
I like the way the Marina has grown since we came here. It was great to see it so busy and full of people, even a few model yachts on one side of the water. A lovely spot.
