N2822 Paper Gold
Design: Paper Dart

Paper Gold was languishing in a corner of Grafham Dinghy park almost black with algae and dirt when I picked her up for Kath.

With a lot of cleaning and a few bits of string replaced and sporting the cast off sails of 3299 she proved very quick, winning races at Starcross and several CVRDA events.

I'm now the owner of 2822 Paper Gold - nice to have a 12 again!  The boat will be racing at Starcross in the hope that we'll be joined by a few other 12s!
