Another excellent article. It's just a pity that it is such a depressing topic! Probably the only solution is for someone with very deep pockets to come along to save the whole lot then sell off the non uk stock. Probably wishful thinking!

Honestly, what is the difference between most of that museum stuff and what 80% of y'all are still sailing ffs.

And seriously you're wondering why the damn sport is in decline when all you and our supposed premier magazine can get exicited about is stories like this and romancing about swallows merlins and drunks in Salcombe..

Really, I mean really what are you all?

The CVRDA forum has some extra details, such as which auction details are wrong, and where to find more photos.
