Does anyone have any marauder mirror 14 sails and/or a cover. If so I would be very interested in buying.
Thanks,
regards,
Richard

ooh, I collected the remains of a marauder this week from the Lake District.  I would be really interested in seeing pics of your boat Richard, so I can get the rebuilding right.

I'm planning on having to get a cover made, but luckily I do have a mainsail and jib.
the same, but different...

Nessa, any chance of an up to date list of your fleet? Are you in double figures yet? No reason for asking except a combination of nosiness and boredom...

I built my Mirror 14 (608) in 1972/73 and have raced her for many years at Benfleet and Leigh on Sea. In recent years she has had less use as I progressed to offshore sailing, but I realise that I miss dinghy sailing and am in the process of redecking her in the garage. I have loads of old photos and the construction manual that I used when I built her. I will have to get these scanned and I will email them to you if you want and will help you as i can.
regards,
Richard

Richard, that would be fantastic!  I'm now wondering about the age of mine, since it is number 45.  Perhaps I should try carbon dating! 

You might also like to try asking in www.cvrda.org for bits.  They always have lots of bits and pieces lying about in their collective garages.

Ok many thanks for that. 608 is in bits at the moment. I will take some pics and foward them to you so that you can see the construction, beneath the decks. It is all very straightforward. I will also look in my class association files to see if I can find any reference to M45.

Best Regards

Richard
regards,
Richard
