This evocative photograph is also rather said as the "Lalla Rookh" was sold to the breakers yard shortly after; the "Alastor" became a floating restaurant in Ramsgate harbour in 1939; and the "Virgo" ran aground on Skvatthällen outside Kobbaklintar sailing into Mariehamn and was wrecked in December.
