The Euterpe is a ship that was built on the Island in 1863. It is now in the San Diego Museum but is still seaworthy and is taken out a couple of times a year. This ship is now called the Star of India will be taken out again at the end of the year. Those dedicated to looking after it would like to invite some descendants on this trip.
If anyone has any Manx ancestors that emigrated to Australia on the Euterpe please contact me, regardless of whether you wish to make the journey or not. I can put you in touch with those involved with the Star of India.
Thanks
