International 14 Storm Sails

I tend to sail my International 14 single handed which means I am over-canvassed in all but light winds.

I was thinking of buying a set of second hand Firefly sails to use in more windy conditions.

What do the experts think of this suggestion.

Re: Clywedog

Hi Keith Just to let you know that Sue and I will be coming as spectators to have a look at Clywedog on the Saturday and Sunday. As relatively new members of cvrda and only getting used to sailing my vintage I14 since it's purchase earlier this year, I thought I'd take a look for the future. Will sp...

Re: International 14s

Hi Robert and John

Thanks for your most helpful replies and information.. Owning both an Uffa Fox and a Fairey really is the bees knees. I'm most envious!

Many thanks

International 14s

I've been interested in International 14s, particularly 1930s - 1950s, Uffa Fox and Fairey. for sometime but I'm probably too old to sail one now at age 64. Could anyone answer the following questions: Does anyone sail 1930 - 1950 aged International 14s and where? Do any come to the cvrda events? Is...
