Yes, the hull is getting on a bit now!  It was started many years ago and never finshed, sold twice as an "unfinished project" and hopefully this time will make it onto the water.

It's a Slug, a 10 year old design but currently still the Nationals winning design and I think it's a bit good having sailed one a fair bit.  Probably not as fast as the new Ellway (yet to hit the water) but as this will be sailing both as a Cherub and as a 12' Skiff it will probably be a better compromise, as the Ellway is optmised for a T foil, and although we'll have one for Cherubby duties, they are not class legal in a 12...
