Golden Horizon was welcomed into @PortsmouthPort this morning as part of her South Coast Staycation Voyage! #TradewindVoyages #GoldenHorizon
What a perfect morning to welcome @TradewindVoyage's Golden Horizon to Portsmouth for the first time.
The worlds largest sailing vessel, she fits in perfectly with our historic waterfront.

I remember when I first saw a manicule!
Many a margin has been graced by these tiny hands with an extended finger, pointing out notable areas in a book. "Manicule" is taken from the Latin maniculum, or "little hand".
These examples combined with tiny French Reynard foxes!🦊

Sailors once believed it was unlucky to sail on a Friday. Legend has it the RN named a ship HMS Friday to disprove the myth.
She sailed on Friday 13th with Cpt James Friday at the helm and was never seen again.
Of course, there has never been an HMS Friday.

Today is the 254th anniversary of the oldest commissioned warship in the world, #HMSVictory. She was floated out of @DockyardChatham on this day in 1765. She's now @PHDockyard and she's ready to teach you all about key moments in British naval history like the #BattleofTrafalgar!
