Richard,

Yep the wood spars came with her.

Where to start,  the transom is rotten and the centreboard case is a state.  She has been re floored at some point do the main hull and frames are good. The deck is a bit hows your father (there a hole in the port quarter) and the starboard topsides need a new panel.

good bits Ive managed to get a faithful rudder/stock and tiller, weve managed to most of the lovely brass brightwork and best of all lucked out and found some original cotton sails in practically unused condition.

A classic of a boat, I take it, the boat has a wooden mast as pictured?

What have you got to do to the boat?

Here is theo ld girl. The idea to do a faithful restoration, but keep her as sailable as possible.  Ive some history.

Shes a 1951 GP14 sail number 47. Im enjoying it.
