The picture carried on the front page on May 8 was of a traditional Maltese dgħajsa tal-pass and not a luzzu as described.
This actual dgħajsa was in fact used in the early 1950s by the then Princess Elizabeth of England while she was stationed in Malta, before she was married.
The boat is now owned by A & S Water Taxis and is used for VIP tours around the Grand Harbour.
