I had the great pleasure of visiting the Victory undergoing restoration in September 2015 in her dry dock, the ship was in great need, the percentage of authentic pieces decreasing from decade to decade as the work required to keep her in good condition.

I recommend this visit if you're passionate about this type of ship. Luckily, the weather was fine, so I was able to take some photos inside without flash.

I think these images will be useful to some.

Let's get to the pictures:

Then the visit came to an unhappy end - I'd have stayed for hours if I'd been alone! But we'll be going back for sure, now that the work is finished and it's back to full mast.

You're welcome Dan. If it helps..

I've read almost all the novels by Cecil Scott Forester , Alexander Kent, and of course Patrick O'Brian. This visit was the culmination of all these adventures, many of them tragic.
During my visit, I immersed myself in all these stories, which were very close to the reality of the period.
