I'm looking to buy a boat, any one help

There was an asymmetric canoe for sale on Facebook last month, on the "Dinghies and dinghy bits for sale" page. How good a swimmer are you?  I had a canoe for a couple of seasons and never managed to finish a race without a capsize!

	There are a number of H2s now on East Coast and we are about to put together an East Coast set of events for 2020. Similar speed to a Blaze but as there are only newer boats available they are more expensive.

	What sort of budget? Then normally go on the class Facebook page and say you’re looking brings up plenty from the dinghy park. The 300 is an ace little boat, especially if you sail somewhere coastal or roomy; the IC definitely on my bucket list though.

	Isn't there a big fleet at Wilsonian now? There are not many clubs where you can get good single-handed fleet racing in anything but a Solo or a Laser.

	Steve Cockerill has his 300 for sale in Hampshire, but what about Supernovas there seem to be a lot of those around on the market. Or Phantom as your on the east coast we have quite a few boats up that way. Ardleigh sailing club has a winter series and a lot of the guys are doing that, worth a visit and talk to Matt House or Chris Roberts They knows what's happening and what might be for sale
