Nope.The current Jacket was made by John Bush. (in the 80s?) I have also been told by
Haich Omandier that many years ago the Rocky Club sand blasted the tender prior to a paint job. Bill says he stood there camera in hand ready to photograph any signs of the clipper ship or sunrise herald, but neither appeared. Seems it must ave been sand blasted once already.
John may be able to chime in and comment if any of he green could be found when the removed the old jacket.
