I presume this is some kind of very early April Fool joke ?
Surely it would be a National Yachtery?
lol Corby !
Brilliant Corby.
I'm puzzled to know tho why the Express has got this under "Brexit News Latest"
All scratch cards should be banned IMO
I suspect that the fact that a new Royal Yacht wasn't commissioned had much to do with security issues and less to do with economic ones....

It will be a venue to sell arms to Arabs and Turkish dictators to replace our trade with the EU.
I think it may just be that at the Express every day is Brexit Day :
Itchy.....well, at least it keep Diana's killers off the front page !
No, let Her Majesty buy her own boat!
Tho it was nice to see the chief suspect out at church over Xmas, and looking v sprightly at 97 :-)

But I digress.
The yacht. Bad idea I feel.
Well I won't be buying anymore scratch cards
I have never bought a scratchcard in my life !
Don't you think HM is ( er, - what shall we say - ? ) a little advanced in years to go messing about in boats ?
Or are you wondering who else might use it ?
Well here's an idea.

If they do start a lottery to fund the building of a Royal yacht ... don't buy a ticket.
well?
Sensible answer Talbot.
is there a point you are trying to make here gromit?
Will it be built in time for Harry and Meghan spend their honeymoon, relaxing on a cruise? eh.
The Queen was seemingly devastated when they put the Britannia out to pasture, besides which she won't be in such good nick by the time it gets built. Not a good idea in my opinion.
