History
This Thames dinghy was built by C Constable of Hampton about 1890. She was purchased from Constables in 1949 by the grandmother of the present owner and has been in the family ever since. It was not until 2008 that she was first named, when she was named HELEN in memory of her purchaser. August 2009
