Update needed

"Consequently, the National Trust has launched an urgent appeal to raise funds for the vessel's purchase and restoration. £200,000 is required (by 17 September 2011) to transfer the vessel to National Trust ownership, and a further £300,000 is required to fully restore the barge and support it in the future.[4] However, if the appeal fails, her details will be recorded, and she will be broken up.[4]"

The deadline was almost eight years ago. What was the outcome? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.235.184.247 (talk) 15:05, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
