Andrew Temlett has won our online competition prize of one of Gipsy Moth IV's keelbolts.
Andrew from Plymouth said: 'I am so delighted and pleased to win such a historic piece. I was on Plymouth Hoe on the 28th May 1967 to watch the return of Sir Francis Chichester in Gipsy Moth 1V from his around the world voyage. This prize has brought back very fond memories of this occasion, when Sir Francis Chichester received a splendid welcome from the vast crowd of people on Plymouth Hoe and he was welcomed by a 10-gun salute from the Royal Artillery.'
