Here is a link to a shortish story with photos of the restoration of the 1905 mini channel cutter 'Sao'. Sao was built in Sydney and sails in Sydney Harbour. The story tells of the trials and tribulations of the couple who rescued her in the 60's and still sail her despite ages of both boat and crew.

The story is part of the free monthly- magazine 'Sydney Afloat' and can be found at www.afloat.com. (http://www.afloat.com.) This mag is the news, whats on, and history of boats and Sydney. It has a bit of everything. Well worth a look.
When I feel home-sick, I log on and give it a read.
