Looks like a ToY to me, late 60's or early 70's singlehander with fully battened main, and sliding seat. Imagine a longer, thinner, GRP Topper. Had quite a few on the East coast for a time but not seen or heard of one for a long, long time. As a child I used to watch Andy Bangham, the National Champion building them in his garage in Rowhedge.

I deliberately destroyed two marauders last week.  sob.  I sold the l2k this morning.  That means I am now down to contender, kestrel, byte, moth-skiff, french thing, i14, phantom.  A mere seven boats!  But not to worry, the 'chap' mentioned above is taking some of the l2k money off my hands on Monday for a couple of Europes and the pointy boat in the middle.

her indoors only knows about the Europes... Wink

Oh no what happened to the marauders? Were they that bad? I am sure Grumpf will be happy especially if you gavethem a proper send off in a funeral pyre?
