Royal yachts were national and international instruments, operating in changing domestic and global contexts where Britain's influence was frequently disputed. This studentship would make an important scholarly contribution by analysing the significance of their activities within intertwined understandings of monarchy, nationhood, empire and decolonisation. With Britain's contemporary global profile, and imperial legacies - and with them the broad concept and implications of 'decolonization' - under close scrutiny this is a timely opportunity to address a neglected but multi-faceted component of these processes. This project brings together in collaboration Birkbeck, University of London, and two members of the REACH CDP Consortium: the National Maritime Museum (NMM)(part of Royal Museums Greenwich) and Historic Royal Palaces (HRP). The REACH (Revisiting and Enhancing Approaches to Collections and Heritage) Consortium has five member institutions in total: NMM, HRP, the National Portrait Gallery, the British Film Institute and the National Trust.

皇家游艇是国家和国际的工具，在不断变化的国内和全球环境中运作，英国的影响力经常受到争议。通过分析他们在对君主制、国家、帝国和非殖民化相互交织的理解中活动的意义，这一研究将做出重要的学术贡献。随着英国当代的全球形象和帝国遗产——以及“非殖民化”的广泛概念和含义——受到密切关注，这是一个及时的机会，可以解决这些过程中被忽视但多方面的组成部分。该项目汇集了伯克贝克学院、伦敦大学和REACH CDP联盟的两个成员：国家海事博物馆（NMM）（格林威治皇家博物馆的一部分）和历史皇家宫殿（HRP）。REACH（重新审视和加强收藏品和遗产的方法）联盟共有五个成员机构：国家博物馆、HRP、国家肖像画廊、英国电影学院和国民信托。
