LETTER: Ladybird display was a mistake

From reader Mark Joyce...
ladybird
The temperature-controlled enclosure for a historic speedboat, constructed as part of the new Nelson pier, has been empty since last summer.

The Ladybird racing boat display has been a huge mistake right from the start. To display one racing boat that was in its heyday back in the 1920s is a nice gesture but an absolute white elephant. 

What realistically can be done with this glass house?
