Debunking Framar's past to enlighten the **mis-understood**

The Framar is named after FRAnk MARshall. 

And it's doing the research based that started when we found her reviewed in a 1937 motor boat magazine, That publication may have made a typo in his name and put B and not P.

If you click on the following link you will find the rest of the story from that article.

If you compare that information with the sent information below, it shows you how the B and P typo may have been misleading for years.

I wanted to tell you this information so that you know that her historical information isn't made up at all.

Here is link to a radio interview that sparked the public to call in regarding her past owners and their memories around the Framar.

I created and edited the video with the radio in the background.

Hope this information helps you understand that we are not following any false claims.

Also the Framar was published in last years Martime world wide magazine that was apparently founded by Baden Powell himself.

Originally the scouts council had debunked that Powell never had any involvement in boats.

But the magazine re connected them dots and published her story and assured us he did.

Now you know why we want to save and share this boat.

Framar turns out to be historically linked to Lord Baden Powell

We got in-touch with a museum in the hope of getting evidence to show that Framar was involved in the Dunkirk evacuations. But in our response we found out something new that shows the Framar is a boat that needs to be saved as the following email shows:


Thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately I can find no record of Framar taking part in the Dunkirk Evacuations. I have found her in 1939s Lloyd's Register of Yachts (see below), which confirms that she was built by J. Taylor in 1937 and shows she had two 8 cylinder Chrysler petrol engines, so she would have been a speedy boat. Her owner in 1939 was Capt. F. P. Marshall. He was a member of the Hayling Island Sailing Club, The Royal Southampton Yacht Club and The Old Carthusian Yacht Club
(whose Commodore in 1939 was Lord Baden-Powell and was a club for those who went to Charterhouse School). This indicates that Framar was probably based on the Solent or around Chichester harbour before the War.

So now we have this information it proves this boat needs saving so people ever forget her history.
Click on donate button on the right or get in-touch if you want to sponsor the boat and help her get restored and seen by everybody up and down the country.

If we can have her fully restored before 2017 we could celibate her 80th Birthday by having the framar go on a sea Adventure or do something epic that can be added to her History.

I Dean Bradford have wrote eight chapters of a Novel on this boat, the novel will be called Sunset Dreams, about a creative young boy who travels to the Isle of sky to stay with uncle after he leaves school to get away from disturbing issues, his uncle shows him the island via a microlite, but while his uncle is away on a business conference, this young boy watches the sun set as he dwells on issues he has left behind, and he is sure that he can see another land in the clouds, so one day he flies up by himself against his uncles knowLedge and travels to another land.
And makes a special friend, but what has happened?
Did he goto another land or is it just a dream?
I am writing this novel in away that makes the story very interesting yet very un predictable.
I have also re invented ways to move around my story using crossing path events, of objects and nature and his uncle has 3 pets, 2 ferrits and a Maw cat that together with the whole adventure make a really compelling story.

So helping me save the framar, also helps me finish my book.
