You guys are going to have to believe me on this one - but it is Phantom 88, one of Winging It's Old Fleet until last year.  I just can't find a pic with the sail up.  And it should've gone up yesterday!


Is it me or is that trailer wheel really out of alignment?

I always thought this would make a great sail number, until some ar**hole changed the coding to 'GBR'...

I'll check it out.

I do know one or two old Artisan members, they may be able to shed some light.



Seems like you were right Rupert Smile  A "Flying Streak". Never heard of it before.

It's a great pic. We need to transfer it to our archives.

Not entirely sure what this is....best guess would be a Shearwater. 

1961, Artisans SC. This club was a breakaway club from Eastbourne SC. As for the reason for the split, I think the clue is in the name. This club was located where the Spray water sport centre is now.
