Re: How many feet?
Let's see.....
AC - 17'
IC - 17'
Cherub - 12'
National 12 - 12'
(not sure if this really counts, but....) L***r - 14'
And I am really unsure that the Farr 3.7 counts, considering is it still just a frame (might as well though !) - 12'
So, take your pick from; 58', 70', 72', and 84'

Anyone for a Cherub? (1658)
Although it gives me sadness to put this boat up for sale, especially as I never got the chance to sail her, Crazy Horse (formerly Aquarius) is up for sale. http://www.keepandshare.com/userpics/m/a/x/_/mccarthy/2014-10/sb/img_2965-88488918.jpg?ts=1412535127 The hull is very sturdy, although there is...

Re: International Canoe K102 "Torment"
Also, will you be keeping her with original fittings? I have heard those 'cheese cutters' can be nasty things...

Michael,
She looks lovely...
Will you be doing any of the IC events in her, or keeping her for the classic stuff?
Cheers,
Max

Re: National 12's of the 60's and 70's - Knowledge Please?
What a lovely boat (very lucky you are!).
She looks in much better condition than our N12 too!
Well done....

Re: IC K89(?) continued....
Update: As it would appear, the boat seems to be of an unusual origin with ideas of her past ranging from a German history, right up to being an interesting amatuer built one-off, and as of yet, the most compelling idea behind where she came from is that she could be a 16'(!) IC built for Ken Davis,...

IC K89(?) continued....
All, Here are some more images of K89 (or at least I think it is K89, could be 133, but I would be a little surprised if it was, but I suppose it is possible). On the drive, and I have to say she is in rather fantastic condition, and is now lying at Draycote, awaiting some speed grip, to make her ea...

Re: GP14 and IC Rig
Sorry chaps, but may I through a spanner in the works, and put forward my interest? On the off chance that it doesn't go to someone else, I am certainly interested.... But, it looks as though a small queue has formed(!)... Martin: do you know what material the mast is made from? I mean, my interest ...

Re: Roadford Meeting date VERY IMPORTANT
Must have been an excellent event if the Y&Y report and all the comments are anything to go by! I really am hating the way my A level options have managed to have exams which are around this prime time for dinghy sailing. Not just have I missed this wonderful event, but also I shall miss the IC ...

Re: Penny 14...(K1255)
Oh, sorry!
The pictures I have of her, certainly don't look like a Nethercotte. BUT, the sails may have been swapped at some point...in other words, your K89 might well be the real K89...

Penny 14...(K1255)
Just trying to gauge some interest..... Since getting a very nice AC, and now the offer of K89 (unknown design IC), along with trying to get on with some progress with the Farr 3.7, exams, and the N12, L***r, amongst other things; The 'Penny' 14 has got to go (as much as I will be sad to see her go)...
