Well done, how did you know?
We were in New York for a holiday and it was moored up, getting sails re-fitted, lots of people with braded hair kicking about......

I'd seen some photos of it and read a discussion about it somewhere, either here or on Scuttlebutt. Fairly unusual design, so memorable. Was it in NYC recently?

We seen it Thu last week, just getting ready to move to Boston I think, it was in NY getting some damaged sails replaced under warrenty.

How could you tell they had braided hair, they all appear to be wearing tammies?

We were chatting with them on the dock side, all very nice people.
We tried to get onboard for a look around, but it was only open for pre-booked group parties.
