Info from current owner - Camilla Le May, rcvd 6th Dec 2009:
'Moulin Rouge'-my mother's boat that she bought 50 years ago. It has all the original sails, rudder, two tillers, jib stick, oars etc. The mainsail is in fair shape but the jib, although usable, really needs replacing. It was totally done up as new about 18 years ago and has been in dry storage since I stopped sailing it about 16 years ago.
