I've got one Very Happy

Heathrow way though. (Road trailer tows well, brought it back from Wales a few months back)

It's a nice one but it's out of class for racing but I don't want much for it and it come with 2 sets of sails, pair of oars and a road trailer.

It's got pair of covers. (mast up and a mast down cover)

Also got a little Seagull if needed

Right, had 30mins spare so took a few photos

In short to say she's 30 years old she's okay, you could sail her today. But she needs a summer touch up, the decks really need fresh varnish and the pram nose needs a coat of paint after it was repaired by the boat yard (trailer damage, I have the paint)

Also there is a poor tape on the rear that needs re-doing.

Structurally sound with no rot and no 'black' ply. She is bone dry inside Thumbs Up

A weekend of sanding and painting will make her pretty again.


Big Vinyl Cover


Mast Up Cover This is a bit old now and peeling underneath


The nose was damage by the trailer when in the boat yard, this was professionally fixed but needs paint






Tyres on the trailer are like new


Underneath is in good order


Bad tape


£250 with the trailer? (can't say fairer than that)

TIGERS BOAT SOLD Thumbs Up
Thanks to tiger for selling me his mirror . I visited whilst at Heathrow and towed her back up the 450miles . Needless to say it was an eventful journey and not all parts arrived back home .
It's gona be green and cream to match the 110.
Thanks Matt Thumbs Up
Thanks also to SailingTom for his offer and helpful advice .

That sir is quite a transformation!

Must have been a bit if elbow grease gone into it but it looks very nice.

They are a pretty boat when they are looking all fresh and smart! (Much nicer to see than a plastic boat Whistle )

Very nice Thumbs Up
