or try giving pete bond at severn a call. he usually has a few boats available. if not he will probably know where you can get one. alternatively you may be able to find a early composite winder boat, which are arguably faster but you can get a newer boat for your money with a severn. My boat is a severn composite and inland it is just as quick as the newer kevlar-glass boats. Also with the severns from about 14250+ the bow was widened slightly. Although not being a modern wide bow boat it is still slightly wider than winders of the same age.

where would you get one of those, cause most arent penultimate and this makes them a tad more expensive

get a penultimate I14, twin wire, aymmetric, reasonably quick, good class association and lots of spare/info about, also once they get down to about £1000 they tend to stay there so you wont loose much money on it.

Lost me there: what boat does that comment refer to? If you meant Fireballs, they did OK in handicap at a lake-based club I used to belong to. Edited by Stefan Lloyd |
