Contribution from Ken Goddard
I do not believe the headline description of this boat; this boat was not one of the ISCA collection, and only got so described by mistake. The boat of this vintage which was in the collection was, I think, N.203 "Tabitha".
N.206 "Storm", was owned in the early years of this decade by Dr. Stuart Martin of North Norfolk. During the winter of 2003, Dr.Martin extensively renovated this boat, with the aid of Mr. (?) Chippendale the famous Twelve boatbuilder, who had retired to the area.
Storm entered the Norfolk Broads Y.C. Classic Dinghy regatta in 2004, and I crewed for Dr. Martin at this event. "Storm" was one of the candidates for the Ribbed Boat Trophy that year and a picture of her appears on P.56 of the 2004 Annual Newsletter. Dr Martin remains a member of the Association but I have not heard of the boat sailing recently.
