Strange they do not mention the Jollyboat given there is a fleet at PMYC which is currently trying to revive itself.

Strangely enough....

The Melbourne Jollyboats already sail for an 'ashes' series, which contains the ashes from the first Oz jollyboat 'Fairey Gesture'.

Reckon the Ozzies are big on burning things and then offering them as a prize...
