Vintage 1939 National 12 Sailing boat. Her name is Sunbird and she is number 457. 

She is being sold with her trailer, 

She was beautifully restored in 2007 and has spent most of her recent year in France. 

Sadly on her return to the united kingdom she has damaged whilst on her trailer. See photo. 

She needs attention over an area of 3 planks between 3 ribs. 

She needs a rub down and a re varnish and you would own a wonderful piece of history. 

Sadly ill health means that this is out of my reach. 

Sold with :- mast and everything that relates to the craft in the photo. The sails need some attention. It would be such a shame to see this end up just as a garden planter. Collection is from Evesham Worcestershire WR111JL

Boat number: 457
Type: Unknown
Boat Name: sunbird
