I was listening to the reports on NPR and BBC America this morning. Fortunately, many of the really important bits, (wheel, mast, wheel house) were elsewhere for renovation. Early reports stated that much of the damage was to the deck, which was already scheduled to be replaced, and that the ironwork was not badly malformed.
It could have been a lot worse.
I do hope they catch the bastard who did it. Maybe a he can work off his sentence by providing a live demonstration of those two quaint forms of British naval discipline, flogging and keel hauling.
