Very confusing between the two

[edit]

The description is mostly written as if there's just one, and it doesn't say which, but I think it's mostly about the Australian one, while the lead photo is of the New Zealand one. Does someone know more and want to help clarify? Dicklyon (talk) 05:34, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK, maybe there's just one. I can't find any evidence of their being two. The one at Whitby in the UK and in NZ was the same one on its long tour. Dicklyon (talk) 05:46, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Or maybe this is a new tourist-attraction one at The Endeavour Experience Whitby. But that's not the one that photographed at Whitby in 2000, right? Dicklyon (talk) 05:55, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

OK, found it here. Moved to Whitby in 2018. Still not clear who made it, or when or why... Dicklyon (talk) 06:03, 7 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. Still don't know who or why, but at least when and where. And does it sail? Has it ever sailed? Doesn't seem to say. Dicklyon (talk) 12:24, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
