Courtesy of John Chalker and his copies of the Aldeburgh YC Year Books -
Wizard was built to the Aldeburgh 12ft Restricted Class Rules and initially registered as R26. She first appears in the 1934 AYC Year Book so was likely built in 1933. She was re-registered as N70 in 1936 and was listed as owned by J.M. Crean up to 1937 when Miss C. Orlon & L.Field are listed as the owners, followed in 1938 by H.J. Cadbury-Brown. She does not appear in the records after 1938.
This early picture shows Wizard as R26 with R3 (latterly re-registered as N29) in the foreground.
