This little boat was built at Underfall Yard last year by shipwright John Raymond-Barker for his own use. Based on a 19th century Hastings fishing boat. She was in the shed and totally destroyed by the fire at Underfall Yard a few days ago.

Here is a picture taken from the yard earlier this year. The superb and unique 1950s wooden sailing boat on the left, Maid of Wyvern', completely destroyed by the fire a few days ago.

In this and subsequent posts are some pix of boats recently rebuilt and/or recently destroyed at the fire in Underfall Yard, Bristol at the weekend. This is 'Ragazza Bella', 1950s Italian speed boat - rebuilt a couple of years ago at the yard. The JustGiving page is collecting for the shipwrights who lost many of their rare, expensive or difficult to find tools.
