Great shot Ken, she made multiple visits to NZ including once to Bluff in 1960's

I saw her in 1985 in Trinidad, Port of Spain if my memo stick works still proper. They were on a Island hopping tour at that time through the East Caribbean
I know I saw her one more, I think also in a Caribbean Isle but beats me if I remember when and where,,but foer sure in the 80,s until not later than 97

Can't answer that one Theo, not sure anyone can predict what is going to happen, have to wait and see I guess, thanks for the comment.
Regards
Ken

Thanks for the comment Andre, I am pleased you also managed to see her and it is good she is being preserved.
Kind regards
Ken

Nice photo Ken. It reminded me of her visit to Saint John on June 18, 1983 (Day 5 of Charles & Diana Canadian tour).
A memorable time for sure.
Kind regards,
andre

Nice one ken
question, She lays in Scottland. If the Scots voting to leave the UK is then the british ship returned to England ?

I guess we all are Mr Dot,where does the time go.!!
regards
Ken

I guess I am ageing rapidly, as I remember her as a new and modern royal yacht! mrdot.

Thank you Igor for the comment, unfortunately her departure voyage down the river was in the dark so my shots of that event were not very good.
Regards
Ken

Nice picture of old fashion lady.
