Shot Notes
This ship is the Notorious. It is a replica of a fifteenth century Portuguese caravel made from reclaimed Monterey Cypress. Caravels were favored by pirates for their speed, agility and large holds. This one was designed and built by Captain Graeme Wylie over 11 years in Victoria. He now sails around the coast of Australia with his wife Felicite. We met them both this weekend, as they stopped on the Gold Coast on their way down to Sydney.
Thank you so much for your beautiful photograph of Notorious below deck
We have had a wonderful time on the Coast of Gold – and met many friendly people
Notorious will certainly return to The Coast of Gold
Sincerely
Felicite Wylie
Notorious
Thanks Felicite, You are always welcome at the Coast of Gold
Nice photo! What does it look like outside?
It looks like something out of “Pirates of the Caribbean” outside. In fact I think they were interested in using it for the next film. It was surrounded by fancy yachts in the marina when I saw it, so I chose an internal shot. The owners have photos of it on the open water on the Notorious facebook page.
