A quote from the seller
"Hi. The sail number is 2489. It is a china doll design. The hull is in a sorry state, quite a few planks have sprung, the foredeck is lifting, one side deck has a broken section at the back and some rot and there is some rot at the back. Hope this helps. It would be free to anyone who can collect. Cheers Rosalind."
This boat is Electress - in the capable hands of John Hoyle she finished 2nd in the Yachting World Silver National in 1970 - surely someone out there can save her?
Cheers

I bought Electress from John Hoyle in the early 70's, she's one of the early China Dolls and was pretty quick in her day, she had a fairly modern rig too probaly thanks to Mike Hoyle who I believe sailed her more than John did. It would be nice to see her sailing again but I won't voulnteer to do the restoration - I've done enough boat maintence lately! Electress would make a very good vintage racer!
