There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

hello, my first time in here.
My great grandfather Berner Andreassen bought the "Spitfire" from the QLd. govt back around 1900, used it as a fishing boat of sorts, (sea cucumber) out of Port Douglas in North Queensland, sold it on later and was lost in a cyclone. I've never seen a photo of it, just a sketch and a line drawing - though not very detailed.
not much of a sailor myself I'm afraid.
cheers,
Ron
