"we found it exhibited one or more risky behaviors"

Pretty apt for the B14 fleet from my time in the class (on and off the water) Wink

Not sure, but Dumb and Dumberer had one kicking around before their divorce, I wonder where that went, they seem to collect boats but never sell them..

Toby Barsley-Dale had one sitting on his drive last time I was at his house.

I had one years ago at Hayling. Fantastic boat. Good to hear that things are going well.

What could possibly go wrong?

Great to hear the class is going strong. The B14 is fantatic, the most fun boat I've ever crewed, and the most comfortable I've ever hiked.
 
Might be in the market myself in a few months for a second hand one, but many hurdles to cross before then!

Do you have a B14 languishing unused, that if you're honest, you're unlikely to use? Do you know of someone that has one parked in the dinghy park, trailer bearing gently seizing with lack of movement?
 
Is it, especially, an Ovington-built one (with the foredeck trench) or does it have a carbon mast?
 
If so, there's rather a lot of demand at the moment. Three Ovingtons have changed hands on the second hand market in the past week. As far as we know, there's more potential buyers on the hunt for a good boat. As a small class, we'd really like the boats to be in the hands of people who'll sail them regularly. If you've got one to sell, please do post on the forum at B14.org- and let us know where it goes, if possible!
