Have you seen there's an awesome Cherub on Ebay? It's a Deeley 2, designed after the 1974 worlds. A fairly radical design. Moderately fine veed forward sections, considerable panel curvature and wide chines aft. Low rocker, high freeboard. Semi self-draining. One of the Deeley designs won the nats in 1979, so one of the fastest designs for it's age. The boat has been recently renovated, with all the seems taped, re-varnished etc. and is in "tip-top" nick. Also suitable for assy conversion. So anyone looking for a cheap intro into the class could snap up a real bargain with this boat. Look how much the Ginger, WaveRider, and SeaFalcon are loving it! So if you fancy some of that, get bidding. ------------- Cherub 2649 "Dangerous Strawberry |
