She's quite good for her age. Little bit of repair to be done in the area aft of the centreboard case and near the bilges decksides - things are a little soft - possibly only needs drying out. I want to dry her out and then treat her with epoxy on the inside. Then varnish inside, paintjob outsides and away we go again. It's quite a long job but whilst she's off the water I've got Passion Pudding to play with ;D

I take it the guy who put the Sycamore decks on Equity forgot to epoxy the undersides?
Shame 'cos sycamore's a really nice colour wood....
 I'm not surprised Mike can't get away from the B14 -it's the next best thing to the I14 - I can remember him enthusing about that too.... :o

Cheers!

Jim (no bad language there eh?)

Jim,

Launch from Batson - its easier and the rest will be going out from there. Smalls doesn't exist at the moment - too many big tides and much too much rain have washed it away............................

And as to what I am building - that would be foolish to give the game away, people might take an  issue with the design, what ever it won't be the final chapter in my Twelve career before I go to sea in a man of war - cryptic enough?

Jimbo41

Well John,

Hopefully the sailing instructions won't be as confusing as your last statement... :P ;)
I'll be in touch re. Saturday.

Cheers!

Jim.

Do you ever wish you hadn't made a flippant comment? Its the B14 Rutland report with sail no 682 proving that they are the strongest team on the water.
