We use one as our committee boat. Stays on a mooring all season (usually on the layline to finish line ). It's green. That's all know about them.

The whole Drascome range is fomeomenally poplear in Chichester harbour: they look great for going to a sandbank for a picnic etc. They do not however look like great sailing boats (in terms of excitement, I mean!) The Lugger is an imposter too, not being lug rigged and all. Me and the Dog would love one for pottering....

what is a lug rig? is it when the front mast is smaller than the back mast or is it something to do with sprits etc?

Lug is like a mirror, but the gaff isn't hoisted vertical with the mast, it's offset at an angle. I think.
