Title: Planet 672
Post by: Interested Party on 09 Jun 2011, 09:38
Planet 672 - Holt 500 series (enhanced/other design?) built 1948.
I am in the process of buying this boat and bringing back to Wiltshire (South Cerney Sailing Club).  I pressed the 'buy it now' button on ebay.  Picking her up on Monday.
The boat is for my lad, who is getting too big for his Cadet (Oxo 2771).  However it will be run along side my 1959 Merlin Rocket and I am sure I will get to sail her as well.
I hope she will be active in the CVRDA circuit.
 
Cheers

Great news nice to see Planet back in action, we have a great vintage series within the class, did you see the line up at Northampton, photo on the website and facebook page?  Hope to see you on the N12 circuit as well, lots of information in the association year and handbooks too.  Please dont forget to register her with Kevan Bloor and welcome to vintage 12 sailing.  Howard (AKA Chadders)8)

Lovely to see the pictures of the vintage boats at Northampton.
Looking forward to picking her up on Monday - although it is a long drive.
Hopefully we will be sailing her by next weekend.
Cheers
