Re: Wot's this then?
I'm pretty sure it's a Sea Dart.. there was another one on ebay a few months ago...
Google turns up less than nothing on the class.. Probably best forgotten, that hull is never going to perform well...

Re: Meeting at Hykeham anyone?
It would have to be a two day event for me to come due to it being a 4 hour drive.... I could bring a vintage N12 and/or a Minisail...

Oh s**t!
Hope you're ok, Bob....
I guess his insurance company has no choice but to cough up...

Re: Classic Cherub 2350 for sale
I was thinking the reverse! Running a vintage Cherub as an N12! Leave off the spinny and the trapeze and the big leech, obviously!

Re: Classic Cherub 2350 for sale
Interesting...

The stem surprised me! From the first two pics, I was expecting a scow!
She's very pretty, but not anything I recognise.....
