| The Grand Turk has found fame since she was built and launched from the Marmaras shore, appearing as Hornblower's HMS Indefatigible and in other parts.
She visited the Medway in April and May 2004 to mark the arrival in Number Seven covered slip at The Historic Dockyard Chatham of the Turk family. They plan to build and restore ships, and to create up to 50 jobs in the towns where shipbuilding once was a way of life. |
