We have all envied that garden in the past

If you are after a fireball Max perhaps the one mentioned on the last page (3?)of this forum thread might be of interest :- http://forums.sailinganarchy.com/index. ... pic=120173

Hi Max,

If Crocodile JD comes on the market I suspect there'll be quite a bit of interest. Serious history there!

I can only echo previous comments regarding Bullet i.e. it won't be suitable for your needs. However, as suggested, Fireball is fine and reasonably-priced examples are very easy to come by. They will be 'narrow bowed' (those UKFA designate 'Classics') and not competitive with modern wide-bowed boats but I doubt that matters to you at the moment (that said, older wide-bowed boats can be acquired for low four-figure sums these days). Have you checked out the UKFA website? http://www.fireballsailing.org.uk/

I may have a fireball available. I have just offered it to my brother for his kids/or himself as they are doing squad stuff and the gp is boring.
If he turns it down it is a tired ronder plastic fireball with needlespar mast, Spinny is tired and needs replacing but the sails are ok for cruising/club racing.
I will advertise it here if there are no takers in the family and it will be for what I paid for it, a donation to a charity of my choice but the buyer decides how much but I would hope you would be reasonably generous.

I will let you know.

Thanks Roger, that sounds exactly what I need to teach my dad, and I am sure my dad will be very generous towards a charity of your choice (of-course I will donate all the money I can!)

It not Crocodile JD that is on offer for free on the sailing anarchy thread but Dogbolter, another worlds winning boat. Just needs collecting from Ireland.....

Ah.....I'm guessing that was my garden last spring? (pic wouldn't open)......I can't seem to delete the ad for some reason, but I still get enquiries, .....garden currently empty.....but I think I may have just bought another "Ornament".......a useful one though.....more soon when I'm sure

Ah yes, I see! Must remember to open eyes and engage brain before typing!

If it wasn't for the fact that further expansion of my personal fleet has been forbidden I'd be rather tempted by Dogbolter. Must resist though; wouldn't be able to hide the evidence for long!

Max I will let you know as soon as my brother says yeah or nay. I would be delighted for her to be enjoyed.

[Max McCarthy]

fantastic, thanks Roger.

[Nessa]

If not I know the lovely brown Plastic Fantastic that we think won the Europeans is definitely for sale. Let me know if you're interested. It is pretty close to fully functional.

Hi Roger, i have just discovered there is a fireball for sale at my club, so due to the fact we only have an inflatable roof rack! It looks much more likely for us to get that one.
Thanks anyway,
Max
