| March 2008 - The S.Y. Rosabelle
Theodore Pim of Snowdenham Hall, Bramley, Surrey was the owner of 5
vessels all called Rosabelle which he kept at Wivenhoe for a period of 54
years in total. He died in 1929. The last of his yachts was bought Colonel
Abraham who kept her at the river wall where quite a few yachts were
moored. She remained there until the Second World War.
Today the name Rosabelle has been remembered by having the name given
to a road off The Avenue, Wivenhoe.
