"Bessie Ellen through the Spy Glass" Mount's Bay

The gorgeous gaff-ketch Bessie Ellen sailing in Mount's Bay off Newlyn, as seen from our Admiralty Fleet moored in Penzance :-) So utterly fantastic to see historic ships still sailing for real.

Bessie Ellen is a 98 ton Gaff Ketch built in 1904 and flies eight sails covering 330 square meters! She was built to carry cargo and continued to do so until 1979
