Where will you be sailing your lovely boat? |

Boat is based at Fishers Green Sailing Club, close to Waltham Abbey. No N12 fleet but will pit my luck in the handicap fleet. I used to race Snipe's, Laser's and Fireball's in my youth, but the twelve is a thing of beauty that previous boats can only dream of. :) |

I designed this boat in 1969, but is was 10 years till I had the facilities to build. We were experimenting with the potential and limitations of West Epoxy. Months after completion in 1980 my daughter Anna was born, then the boat was laid up for 15 years. Anna & son James raced her at South Windermere SC for 2 or 3 years in the late 90's, then once again she was laid up. More information is available from the designer/builder now resident at the Isle of Luing, Argyll, Scotland rfhpierce@aol.com |
