I have recently purchased N3394 from her original owner Patrick Elcombe. She is berthed at Hunts SC in Cambridgeshire and has already been out a couple of times.

I bought her mainly to sail with my youngest daughter who was finding our Mirror too slow.

She has already drawn many admiring glances from people at the club, I just need to learn how to sail a 12 effectively having been used to singlehanders.
