The Alma Doepel
Come along and hear the romantic story of the Alma Doepel, built in 1903 and now being lovingly restored by volunteers as a Youth Training Vessel. Bill Reid will introduce us to the ship's early beginnings as a coastal cargo carrier, through war time troop and supply vessel to the ten-year volunteer driven restoration of a traditional tall ship meeting strict maritime standards to offer life changing Youth Sail Training programs.
Bill Reid has been a volunteer for nearly ten years at the Alma Doepel Restoration in Docklands and is currently the President of the Supporters Club.
