Good to see she has been saved, although apparently from a friend who went to the opening it is in "dumbed down disney" format.
Sadder is that we are loosing our last real clipper ship "The City of Adelaide" because neither the British nor latterly the Scottish government would provide funds to save her.
However she will be saved as she is being sectioned for transportation to Australia for rebuilding. Whether she will ever sail again, as originally planned, is unknown.
