Visiting Ships 2010: "- Sent using Google Toolbar"
The sea cadets training ship John Jerwood is seen here arriving from Douglas on the Isle of Man with the Whitehaven sea cadets building the T.S. Bee in the background on the Old New Quay. The t.s. John Jerwood is a 23.5m motor vessel named after an international pearl dealer who set up the Jerwood foundation to provide sponsorship in the Arts and Education sector. The Jerwood Foundation provided over £1m towards the purchase of this vessel to allow sea cadets vital experience at sea in a powered vessel. T.S. John Jerwood was built by Blondecell Limited of Southampton who fitted its twin 215 hp Perkins Sabre turbo diesel engines and added the cabins to a hull moulded in Sri Lanka. She was launched in April 2002.
