Every single hand on deck made this happen.
A 120-year-old historic ship doesn’t move itself, it takes an incredible, dedicated community to protect our living history.
Moving Gamecock to her temporary home at Iron Wharf (Faversham), due to planned engineering works in Whitstable Harbour. From the complex coordination of heavy machinery to the watchful eyes of local residents, this was a monumental team effort. While it was fantastic to have the ITV Meridian team join us on-site to document this milestone under the media spotlight, the true stars of the day were our tireless volunteers and shipwright. Every bracing installed, every rope pulled, and every hour given was essential.
Gamecock is now resting safely at Iron Wharf, but this is just the beginning of her next chapter. Thank you to everyone who played a part in this historic journey.
