I also visited the exhibition today and examined the various design concepts. It is stressed that they are very much 'concepts only' at this stage and are based on a single site visit and a design brief listing various essential requirements. These include the very necessary slipway which has not been available previously. As a former steamboat skipper at the museum, a member of the Windermere Lake User Forum, a TARS member and a local sailor and resident.......... I am keeping a close eye on what is going on at WSM. I visit the site regularly and can report that the restoration of the steamboat 'Osprey' is making good progress.
