  1. Sadly the Lady Elizabeth isn’t as sturdy as she looks. Over the near 40 years I have known her, her bowsprit has broken away and in more recent years, her aft starboard bulwarks have collapsed. For years the locals stripped a lot out of her, there is virtually nothing left bellow decks except a few steel cross members. But she has faired well considering she’s been in Stanley Harbour for just over 120 years.

  2. I tried to get some opinion from locals in Stanley about the possibility of rescuing the Lady Elizabeth but they have no money and no real will, their attitude is let her rot away and make memories rather than take her away and have no memories. They seem to have a similar outlook towards the Stanley Lighthouse, a beautiful cast iron Victorian structure which is starting to become unsafe as large cracks are appearing in its structure and yet, there is no public interest. Very sad
