History
EFFIE was built in the late 1950's/early 60's and launched in 1962. She is fitted with WWII gearboxs, a manganese prop shaft and bronze rudders and propellers that came from a WWII vessel MAGYAR, which is also on the National Historic Ships UK register. These items were purchased after the war by Captain Fleming who commissioned EFFIE.
Known previously as TWO DRIFTERS, her new owner has changed her name to EFFIE as it is believed this was her original name.
She has been recently painted, antifouled, and waxed. Her bronze propellers and rudders have been polished.
