Majorca's maritime museum could finally become a reality
Majorca's maritime museum, long talked about, is moving closer to becoming a reality. The Council of Majorca and Palma town hall are in discussion about how to recognise the island's naval heritage in this way, and the museum could be destined for the Ses Voltes part of Palma. The idea would be to start out with a type of "embryo" museum to which further facilities could be added.

Dear sirs, I am currently based in Japan (formerly based in Mallorca) where I am lead shipwright on a large yacht restoration project. Our official photographer is Mr Yoichi Yabe. Mr Yabe is a world famous yachting photographer and he will be in Mallorca in the coming weeks. He has read your article with great interest and we would like to know if there are any possibilities of visiting the caves in Bellver castle or the councils school for master shipwrights. He would like to take photographs for a future article. Please can you inform us who would be the best people to contact regarding this. Yours sincerely, Paul Harvey
