The restoration works of the famous 19th century ship, Cutty Sark, will be completed in time to be reopened to the public next year. The ship will be the unique setting of the next meetings in England.
In May 2007 the ship based in Greenwich, south-east London, was destroyed by a fire that caused a 10 million pounds damage. The fire burned the three decks of the ship. Restoration work reach 35 million pounds, recovering more than 90% of its original features.
The final draft will suspend the boat 3 meters above the bottom of her dry berthof. The space below will become a 1000m2 gallery so that visitors will be able to see the shape of the hull.
From 2011, Cutty Sark will be available for corporate events and private parties. The gallery will be used for dinner and presentations.
