Under Sail

on BBC Two England

A series for those who love sailing ships and the sea The Lovely Irene
The Bridgwater schooner Irene is both beautiful and practical. For more than 50 years she carried cargoes under sail around the shores of the British Isles. When her trading days were over she could easily have drifted into obscurity as a houseboat in a creek on the Thames. Fortunately her enterprising owner has restored her back to the rig and trim that she had when she first sailed in 1907.
