Wanted: international 14 sails

Post by Chalky »

Help! I'm looking for some suitable sails for my newly acquired international 14, K871 Aquamarina, built in1965. A symmetrical kite is top of my shopping list.

Any other info about the boat would also be of interest.

Hope someone can help

JC.

Hi Chris,
I'm on the east coast of Suffolk.
Here's a couple of pictures of Aquamarina.

Nice looking boat! I feel an East Anglian International 14 rally coming on!

I am delighted with my purchase, bought unseen and collected from a Tesco car park. Very grateful to Simon, the previous owner.

If I can't make an event happen at Aldeburgh how about Wroxham?

Hi Chalky, still think Aldeburgh is a great venue ...

Same here. I will bring a rib, we could have our own 14 meet.

If you still need a Int 14 old style symmetrical spinnaker I have one in excellent condition, still crisp and only used a few times over three decades ago and not since. Made by Storrar and Bax and measured by Rollo Pyper in 1985 it was on my Cross III number 1157. It has twin downhaul patches. I've kept it with a view to using it on a small keelboat but still don't feel ready for a keelboat. Location is near Cambridge.

Hi, if Chalky isn't interested then I know someone that will be although I assume that your Cross III would have had the higher "I" measurement which would need a halyard exit higher up than on an older boat?

That's a kite sorted, thanks George. I'm now motivated to start sorting the rig for 2016!
