A NEW film telling the story of the 12 year restoration of the last-manned Trinity House lightship has been released.
Owners of the LV18, based at Harwich Quay, have documented the journey of refurbishment of the ship to its opening to the general public in July this year.
Volunteers spent 12 years bringing the vessel back to life, reinstalling original features and repainting the whole outside of the boat.
