N2751 was owned by my Dad (Brian Scott) from its building in 1973 until the early 1990s. It was raced by Dad at Tynemouth SC, crewed by my cousin Amanda Henderson. After sitting in the front garden in Blyth, Northumberland for quite a few years it was donated to Workington Sea Scouts at some point around 1992. We don't know what happened to it after that.
Dad would like to point out he still has his N12 tie and I have fond memories of the odd time I got to go out in it.

Just asked Dad about the sails - he did get a second set around 1979ish, made by the sail company on the Coast Rd in Newcastle. I wonder what happened to the boat - probably firewood somewhere! Thanks for updating usĀ :)

That will have been Storrar and Bax before they morphed into Pinnel and Bax and moved south.
