This is infact a foam sandwich boat as well I would know i own it. Great boat to sail a few minor glitches but that's because i'm fairly new to this 12 lark :) if any one wants anymore info on the boat my e-mail address is georgesmith95@hotmail.co.uk |

I am a previous owner of 3434 having bought it from the builder James ? and despite its number 3434 is a AC boat with a rear tank. I believe the design is a slightly modified Baggy and has 'bumps' as the waterline is slightly narrow. Un-named when I bought her I called 3434 'Outlandish Words'. Trivia corner - I was told the original blue paint was left over from the ill fated catamaran 'Phillips' |

First measured on 6.12.1999. Tha hull was built by Chris Semple out of the Cheshire Dinghy & Dive mould, having sat around for a while Peter Bennett of Saltash bought the shell and decked it off in I believe DML, Pete was working for Chay Blyth's Challegne Business then. The speed bumps were put on in my garage when I measured her and found the rise of floor out! The sails with the green N were the originals bought s/hand from P&B |

She does have a carbon boom but I think it was home made. |
