General National 12 chat / 3344 (Ella)
22 Oct 2010, 09:39
Hi guys, Ive recently bought 3344 Ella and want to find out some history.
Does anyone know if she's had any good results in the past? Also I'd love to know who put in the double floor and when?
Ive got an old newspaper cutting from Yachts and Yachting showing her before the conversion looking very different with a single bottom, no fordeck and a spaceframe. Also she apparently started life with the mast set way back and an assymetric sail for downwind. I would love to know how well this worked and why and when she was changed?
Any info much appreciated
Steve
P.s. Very happy with her so far! :)

Update October 2010:
I bought Ella this summer from Rudyard Lake Sailing Club, and have taken her to Spinnaker Sailing Club in the New Forest.
Ive only had a chance to sail her a couple of times, but already know its a great boat.
Im hoping to do a lot of competitions in her next year, but starting with the Inland Championships this November at Northampton :)
More Pics coming soon
