This convinces me that my marauder is the worst restoration attempt known to mankind.

I'm failry sure the floorboards are not plywood (we have ply ones in the club boats) I will have a look when I'm there tomorrow.  We definitely thought them worth saving at the time, even though we didn't know what we were saving them for.

I am just outside Cambridge.
the same, but different...

Centreboard is beyond economic repair but not complete repair



A good size hole in the deck, aft is pretty delamintaed too....

She looks old.  What is she?

Why would you want to take the keels off for?

She is a cold moulded National 12, early 1980's I think...... Taking the keels off ? I guess improve speed ?

Yep slightly and being a development class, class rules permit it?
