Saturday 28-November-2017 is Sculptor's 82nd birthday

Sculptor - a boat built by boat builders rather than a boat built by ship builders - and so much more elegant for that.

Sculptor is a 'Star' class boat named for the Sculptor Constellation

A day with CountryFile

We do most of our Sculptor communication these days on FaceBook but where we wish to share information about wider issues then this medium remains probably the best for the time being.

We were approached recently by CountryFile who wish to undertake some filming with us about the 'trainees' for a programme that is due to be broadcast on Remembrance Sunday, 12-November-2017 at 18:15.

The crew were Kathryn, John Bannister and John Wetherall - all was set then for Thursday 26-November.  Here are some images of the day, some of which are © BBC.
