As you can tell we are all very happy for you. Can I suggest you keep us in touch with how its going. No doubt there'll be plenty of suggestions on how to get it right. They are a lovely boat to look at and they sail very well in a wide range of wind strengths. PS what colour is it, and what's the sail number? |

Morning, she is turquoise and her number is 898, I think
she has been around a little but still looks good and has been well
looked after, she will suit us just fine as we have lots to learn.
Guess she will need a few new parts, but I will be happy saving for
them  It's still not sunk in that I have a boat!!!!! Have to wait 'till saturday 19th to collect her...... 5 days! not that I am counting.... I am driving Mr Headfry nuts!! Of course I will keep in touch, and nodoubt will be asking for your kind help in many aspects of sailing and rigging her etc. I think our first sail should be Easter!! again..counting the days! Thanks for your kind messages |
