Early Monday morning a fire ravaged the Cutty Sark, the first ship to be preserved in dry dock from the great British Maritime heritage. My father is a huge fan of the ship, once owning several models. I myself visited the ship at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich in 1991 on my honeymoon. It was a beautiful ship, very sleek, truly one of a kind. Police are investigating arson. A little piece of history has disappeared. They may rebuild her, but it will not be quite the same. I hope they catch the yobs that did this.
