Pllanet sailing at Shearwater, Wiltshire

I bought Planet from Richard and enjoyed sailing her mostly with the Classic and Vintage Racing Dinghy Association but did attend a few Vintage 12 events. I acquired an original set of cotton sails for her. We did find it on the cramped size compared to our vintage Merlin but it worked well with my daughter as crew (she's small!) I sold her after about three years to a sailing instructor on Roadford lake in Cornwall a few years ago and I believe he was looking to sell her recently.
I replaced a couple of ribs that were broken and causing a bad leak; the boat was very dry and in good condition when I sold her.
