A Dutch man lives and works on the Albtros , he sells pancakes aboard now , he was taking people for trips along the coast as well , I believe an elderly man climbed the rigging and fell to his death .
At Christmas time he has the sails and rigging decorated with coloured lights , it looks lovely reflecting in the water ..........

I'm so pleased you've told us about this Amy, we weren't sure whether it belonged there or was just moored for a while. It was early in the season and all was quiet....we must take a trip when it's summer too!!
