dockyard

The main annual race starts from Clarence Esplanade and takes in city landmarks, including the Historic Dockyard and Spinnaker Tower.

The town itself was founded as a Royal Navy dockyard in 1814, and five Royal Yachts were among the many ships built there.

A historic dockyard has been transformed into a "world-class centre" for wind, wave and tidal power projects following a £60m upgrade.

After landing in Stanley and departing from the expedition, I headed to the Historic Dockyard Museum, whose holdings included an exhibit dealing with the warrah.

In May the vessel finally left the Devonport dockyard where it had undergone a seven-and-a-half-year refit.
