Brought Dissipation back to her home at OMSC today. Hull needs painting and decks need sorting but otherwise in great condition. Will be putting her through her paces the next couple of weekends. Street Legal winds are forecasted. After, we'll garage her and give her a makeover. Will post photos of the results soon hopefully.

Our family all sailed this at Clywedog SC, mostly the only 12 in the Valley, from 1996 until about 2004: one invariant in our otherwise shifting fleet as the children grew up.  Later she pottered at Trimpley SC. For the last two yeast she has been loved but not cared for, sadly. Now passed on to Olton Mere SC for use by their youth section.

Dissipation sailing back at OMSC with Kevin at the helm on 9/11/08. Perfect Street Legal conditions.

Dissipation has now moved to the garage and is undergoing a full refurb. The hull was stripped revealing a "lovely" shade of green - we now know why it used to be called broad beans. Will load up some pictures soon. The first new coat of blue paint went on the hull on wednesday.

This 12 is by chance now in my collection with a currently uncertain future. How good was this design? She looks very sorry for herself.
