CVRDA

Still an old sail and centreboard available.

Looks like the same number?

The telephone number is not working.

I have a centre board, rudder, two booms and two sails. Message if interested, not after much money.

Hi Roger,I have emailed.

They are still there and I know would appreciate any support.

If you can use the screw type I found this company very reasonable:-

I am keen. I have contacted the owner and considering how best to collect. You are welcome to crew or helm once back on the water!

Hi, I am looking for a singlehander, something able to carry weight, more sit in than on. Budget very small so likely to take on a project.

Lidl are selling small tubes of this for £1.99.

Having raced my 18 this afternoon and being, perhaps, a larger gentleman I do not think it that comfortable or dry. And with the water being rather low at BBSC it is a long way up the slip pushing 250+Kg. Still, I am not complaining, I very much enjoy sailing it.

I've listed the above on ebay. The first two are harken. Happy to accept a reasonable offer and take off ebay if anyone is interested.

I have just completed the decks of my National 18 with the own brand screwfix yacht varnish and am very pleased with the result. I was getting just over two coats per tin so it is very economical. I tried the own brand varnish remover too which had good reviews but did not work as well as nitromors....

I am enjoying sailing my National 18 and have decided I would like a newer one so am selling 287 - Whisp. Newer but still CVRDA eligible. It is a very well made 1970 version, GRP hull with wooden deck, aluminum centreplate, metal rig, two sets of sails, milanes rudder & stock, double speed mainsheet...

I have not done the event though would like to. Having sailed a classic 14 with Chris at Hunts this year I would say the scenario you describe is not ideal. As has been suggested I would go for a more modern and perhaps comfortable design the first time.
