Storm-Bound Charity Vessel on African Voyage Gets Free Paint Job

Stormy weather has forced a ship to take refuge in Falmouth, England, on the first leg of its charity voyage from Scotland to Africa, where it will become a medical ship serving isolated communities. A&P Falmouth shipyard say they are assisting the Jubilee Hope, which set sail from Glasgow and was just four days into her 8,585 mile trip when she arrived in Falmouth. Operated by charity the Vine Trust, the Jubilee Hope is en route to Mombasa, where she will then be transported overland to Lake Victoria.
