Re: not a sailing boat
There is a serious risk that this thread (which could be fun) will get shifted to Chat or Banter.
Might I flirt with the moderator by adding this one (which I rather like, especially the contents! ,) also up on ebay at present.

Re: not a sailing boat
The thought I had was that the Pedalo Police launch might make rather good Committee Boat at Shearwater... or perhaps a Referee's launch at an Optimist team racing event
Maybe Nessa could use it to control those runaway mirror sailors at the National Rally!
The moth sailors might like this as a development of the pedalo...

Re: not a sailing boat
I think we should have a fleet of those in reserve in case there is no wind at the Nats
Micheal you must have far to much spare time to go looking for these things

Re: not a sailing boat
Had to revive this thread for this one. (Although I think we have in fact seen one of these before!)

Definitely has to be good for a Shearwater Rescue/patrol boat?

Re: not a sailing boat
Going back many years, perhaps 1920s/30s, there used to be the Swan and Cygnet moored in the Exe at Starcross. Not that even I can remember that far back.Had to revive this thread for this one. (Although I think we have in fact seen one of these before!)

No, my memory does not fail me, and it keeps this thread vaguely on topic
Here are some of the details, and Swan is older than I thought.

Now who will buy one of those pedalos and rig it with a mast and sails?
Would you believe I originally found them in a book detailing the history of the railway from Exeter to Newton Abbot. It just shows you cannot disregard anything.
