National Historic Shipsuk CALENDAR 2013 UK NationalANNUAL REVIEW Historic APRIL 2011 –Ships MARCH 2012 Foreword From its inception in 2010, our Photography Competition has been a bellwether for fine and fascinating images of historic vessels, harbours, seascapes and people. Every year we have chosen 12 of the best to feature in our calendar, but due to cost have never been able to publish more than a small number of these calendars for distribution. This year we are doing something very unusual: we have combined what we are now calling our Annual Review with our calendar to form a single high-quality publication. Bringing the costs of the two publications together will allow us to make the Review/ Calendar available to all owners of historic vessels on the Registers, stakeholders, supporters, UK governments, and everyone on our Annual Report mailing list. On each calendar page we have incorporated a pen-sketch of aspects of what we do, some of which expand what is written in the Review, others introducing new topics to draw your eye. We want to encourage you to make more use of the information on our websites and those of relevant organisations, so each pen-sketch is accompanied by a web-link for you to follow. We hope that you enjoy the Review, and the opportunity to display the splendid images in the calendar from the Photography Competition as striking reminders of the richness of our maritime heritage.

At the AGM, proposals to update the constitution in line with recent Charity Commission recommendations were agreed. Our thanks are due to Helen Doe for undertaking the laborious task of identifying the differences between our current Constitution-itself approved at the time by the Commission- and the new model version.
