History

ORLANDO was built for William H Billing in 1910 by Richard Pill of Gorran Haven, Cornwall. Originally powered by sail, she was later fitted with two engines, each driving a quarter shaft, the mast was moved aft and a cuddy fitted. The boat is currently being restored to her original condition. November 2007
