Pilot cutters relied on speed and seaworthiness to secure business and Alpha is a prime example of the type. Long admired by yachtsmen, Alpha was one of many pilot cutters that were converted into yachts and her yachting career started 100 years ago.
As a yacht, Alpha was famously owned by Royal Cruising Club flag officer Sir Sidney Rowlatt, who enjoyed nothing more than sailing her in the gusty conditions she excels in. Alpha underwent various modifications over the years, but thanks to substantial restoration work, she is now again sailing as designed.

Mr Alpha: So you going to fill me in on why you always stand by my side?
Hubert Crackanthorpe: Weird...I considered the same question. Vantage point huh?
Mr Alpha: You legit walk up to stand next to me
Hubert Crackanthorpe: Really? You feel targeted?
Hubert Crackanthorpe: Is it that 'two guys sharing the restroom' feeling?

The first car I ever rented in Europe was an Alpha Romeo. I drove it from Frankfurt to Cologne for the weekend. It was equipped with an early GPS (ca 1998) which was programmed to return to the rentacar shop. So for three days, I had to put up with a German lady telling me to do a u-turn in German at every possible opportunity.

Why Earl Gray?
It's his nickname. He is secretly called that because you never see you eat. But no matter where he shows up, after a few minutes he has a cup of wonderfully scented Earl Gray in his hand. That fact is scary XD
