说明
Unclear if definitely the SY Argonaut. Purchased in the belief that there was a PTA connection - instead the link is with Henry Lunn. The SY Argonaut was one of the first cruise ships operated by Henry Lunn. She was built in 1879 as Norfolk and renamed La Plata in 1882, Orienta in 1893, Norse King in 1895 and became Argonaut in 1898. The 101m long SY Argonaut was an Edwardian ‘superyacht’ in service of one of the pioneers of package holidays the Co-Operative Cruising Co. Ltd operated by Lunn. She was struck by the SS Kinsgwell on 29 September 1908 in fog and foundered, after the 120 passengers and 110 crew had taken to the lifeboats. The wreck lies approximately 18nM to the East of Eastbourne’s Sovereign Marina.
