My old boat ! Initially named Fifteen Minutes of Fame. This pic from the Porthpean Nationals some years back 2000 ? Great light wind boat but never really had the pace in a blow. Baggies were always quicker on the plane. http://i150.photobucket.com/albums/s114/boatshed/N12.jpg Steve |

As Steve says, originally 'Fifteen Minutes of Fame' however when Chris Winzar bought her from Rob, Ysobel took one look at her muttered the immortal words -'O Crikey!' and it stuck!!!! Possibly one of my favorite Twelves of those I have owned! Only sold her because I got into compulsive boat building and couldn't fit all the boats in the drive let alone the cars. Steve sold her onto Simon Hinks who still has her today. |

Some more pics from my archives! They give an idea of the boats radical layout! |

Anyone know whereabouts O'Crickey lives nowadays? |

Living in darkest Cornwall when I saw her last autumn, I think that Simon Hinks has plans to sail her again this year. |
