I'd like to say another thank you to everyone who has helped in the campaign. Those who have donated and those who went to the trouble of sharing the campaign on Facebook and via emails, talking with friends and the other things you've done for us. Obviously we fell far short of what we'd _hoped_ to achieve, but that was always a pretty big call, so we're both disappointed and delighted, which really is a most odd combination of feelings. We _will_ be able to get Tally Ho to a place of safety. We have more to do. G; ASA & Albert.

Thank you very much to everyone who has helped in th campaign. Whilst we haven't raised enough to do what we'd hoped, we do still have more ideas, a couple of months before 'catastrophe day'. Tally Ho is too significant a vessel to be lost by just letting her slip though the fingers. Please keep in contact of the website and Facebook. Wish us further luck. We still have a long way to go. And again ... Thank you very much indeed for helping. Hmm, actually, as I write there's still nearly an hour to go. Just do it! :-) Gordon.

This campaign closes very soon. We're still short of our minimum aim. Gordon. Albert Strange Association

Our ultimate aim is the rescue of this historic yacht. We are continually looking at how we can achieve that. We hope somehow to have her back in the UK and restored in time for the 2025 Fastnet Race centenary. At present all we can do is move her away from her immediate peril and that alone will cost more than we have raised, though the Albert Strange Association has a modest amount of money that it can also use to help. That move, though, does little to get her back to full health. She's still stuck thousands of miles from home.
