Re: Womble Moth and 1970s racing!
I have quite a few photos from that era and I have been digitizing my slides and negatives. I don't have any building plans; as a first step I would suggest contacting John Claridge at Lymington: www.johnclaridgeboats.com/Contact-Us as he and his brother-in-law Mervyn Cook designed the Magnum series...

Re: The Merlin Rocket Book
I too have a copy of The Merlin Rocket Book which I acquired many years ago when I was going through my phase of studying hull shapes, and which I now would like to sell. It's a very good copy, no damage and not ex-library. I'm not going to set a price (or put it on the bay unless all else fails), b...

Re: What kind of Moth is that?
Welcome Colin, I well remember the Wakehurst design, I wish I'd had one - I've still got a copy of your sales leaflet somewhere! Wasn't there a later version called Supawake, Simon Allen sailed one at a Ruislip Lido open? And I remember Martin Wheeler with his white Wakehurst at the 1979 nationals a...

Re: What kind of Moth is that?
I'm glad to say the current UK Int. Moth website has now recreated the page with the scanned yearbooks here http://www.internationalmoth.co.uk/contacts/yearbooks/ which include a lot of vital information for historians. I have most of them from my days sailing Moths, between 1975 and 1993, also lots...

Re: Introductions
Yes, welcome. I've looked for the sail number of your Moth K3655 in old yearbooks and entry lists from the 1970s and '80s when I was sailing them, and also in a couple of record lists that people in the class association started before they became so cool that history doesn't matter, and can't find ...

Re: International Moth Sail Number K3222 – Renovation Projec
Ah, knew I'd seen the number somewhere - that's Colin Brown winning the 1972 Nationals at Lymington.

Re: International Moth Sail Number K3222 – Renovation Projec
According to my 1975 yearbook, its then owner was J.P.Bean in Gloucestershire and its name was 'Cultural Overlord'.
Reverting to useful information, it appears to be a Stockholm Sprite design by Chris Eyre.

Re: yet another moff
K-3946 was listed on the (incomplete) Moth register as a Phoenix design, owned by Mrs Midori Claridge (wife of John).
I seem to remember it, it would be a double-chine version of a Magnum 3, should look like this.

Re: another blooming moth
All I can add to this is what it's not.....It's not a Womble, Stockholm Sprite, Chelsea Morning, Phobia, Nervous Breakdown, Shelley, Poacher, Mirage or Mistral (all of which were built in a fair number from 1968 - 1980). If the no. K3634 is correct it was built in 1976, as I built my first boat K363...
