Last Of Her Adventures

In Paradise

The “Adventures in Paradise” yacht “Valrosa” is no more. She met a sudden end in October on a reef in the Tuamotus. All that is left now is some debris strewn along the beach of Tikehau. At left is her last photograph—taken by James L. Anderson as “Valrosa” left Rangiroa only a few hours before she struck the reef. There were no casualties.

“Valrosa”, a 99 ft topsail schooner built of teak in 1903, has been in many French and British movies—particularly the “Adventures in Paradise”

TV series. See Shipping, p. 103.
