What a fantastic auction!

God I would love to go....also love to see how much money some of that wood went for!

The Phantom Kipper was an early Morrison design....off the top of my head - after September Girl and before Smokers Satisfaction. Made around early 70s to mid 70s. Got name due to small half sized top plank, called by those in the know a 'kipper' plank.

I had one for a while, there must be some picies on the web site somewhere....urrrr....try:

oh is this easier:

I enjoyed it greatly, however it didn't seem to really go for me unless their was a bit of wind about.....or it had a really light crew.

but nice boat none the less

cheers

Cold Moulded Dayboat rare and fastest of the YW Dayboats.
Well worth having if pot hunting is your game.
