The life of N3118 Captain Beaky. Design: Tigress, designed by: Michael Jackson in 1980
Previous boat names: SAS, When the Tiger came to Tea.
Hoare Tigress once owned by former Northampton12 sailor, Ian Carpenter, who then sold her on a few years ago to a student based at Holowell SC. Found by me in a 'neglected' state and brought north to central Scotland where she has just undergone a thorough refurbishment. Can't decide whether to keep her or sell her in the spring as I am more than happy with my Pipedream (3032). Watch this space/give me advice/offer!?
Up for sale on Appolo Duck.
I pick her up on Saturday!!! :o
This boat was originally owned by Alan Cave and sailed at Pitsford (Northampton SC).
From memory, I think that Nigel Musto borrowed her for the 1981 Burton Week at Pevensey. I think that Ian Tillett (Baldrick) was in the front.
