The Fixx was built by Spud Rowsell and finished off by Brian Herring, from whom I bought the boat around 1984. It was really pretty at that time, and the current name is the one I gave it. We sailed the boat around the Midland circuit and then took it over to Jersey for a few years. The last main event we sailed in was the Paignton Burton in 1991. I then sold it - can't recall who to - but saw it around a few times after that. Very happy memories - glad to see it's still being loved. Mike D N3496 |

AndyE, you spied right. I bought the boat from a chap in Torbay a couple of years ago to learn to sail in. We sailed for a season at Bristol Avon. After sorting the river tacking out, I moved it to Chew Valley Lake for some planing action. We're still there. Mat. |

Here's one from the archives - The Fixx at the Paignton Burton in 1991. This was the first time Anne and I raced together. At this moment, she had just fallen on the thwart and broken it! Mike D N3533
