Ian Emery owned this boat in the 80's and sailed it at Rudyard Lake before he built his Baggy. Ian was very quick in this boat, probably due to the fact they sailed it incredebly light. I remember he placed top 5 in a race at the Nationals, possibly Exmouth 86 though my memory is fading.

Ian often sailed his boats standing up, but you could never tell from outside the boat!

We had the hull built by Parker Boats and finished by David Proctor who built Bouncer amongst other boats. Owned by myself Mark Barnes, but working aboard the boat was sailed little and was based at Whitstable Yacht Club until sold to Ian Emery in approx. 1985. Very quick in breeze but stuck in the lighter airs. Great shape but the rig of the N12 was not powerful enough to overcome the large wetted surface area. Times have moved on and with the newer rigs and lighter weight crews, the boat may be more competitive now. |
