Hi
Great to hear N1520 still sailing.
We owned 'Suspense' in the mid 1980s, sailing at Hilingdon Sailing Base (bought locally from a pinned up ad on the notice board if I remember correctly). It was a beautiful looking and constructed boat, but my Dad and me as a kid were novices and found 120sq foot of sail area a bit lively then so my Dad sold it on.
Have you got any pictures please?
Best wishes
Mike
